Through my life and throughout experiences in my life, not the least of which was the passing of my baby, I have learned a superb truth. I would like to write it and share it. Death is not a thing to be feared but a step of eternity in which to find joy.
This does not mean that we should look for death to find us, or take our own life. This does not mean that we should sit in a corner and pray for death. We must still live our lives to the fullest extent and fulfill the missions for which God sent us to this world. Some people will fulfill their mission as an infant others will take a persons whole long life. Only God can decide when our mission has been completely filled and we are ready to enter our eternity. We cannot decide this ourselves, mostly because we have no knowledge of Gods plan for our life. We don’t know when we have fulfilled our duties here.
Death is but another step in the eternity of our existence. It is simply the act of walking from one place to another, walking through a door if you will. That is what birth is, a journey from a our celestial home to this mortal realm.
We are all sent here for a divine purpose, one of which is to learn, then we continue in our journey. Death isn’t even the last step of our journey, it’s more in the middle. People who die don’t simply cease to be. They go to a world for spirits. A place of learning and teaching. A place to wait for the Saviors second coming. An event that even the dead will share in and rejoice in.
A lot of people look at death as the ending of life. When a person ceases to be. When death is actually just a step in the grand plan of our Heavenly Father. Your Spirit, what actually makes you you, is eternal and never dies. Your spirit will once again be untied with your body, in the day of resurrection.
I believe that we will find that when we die our thoughts are still our thoughts. Our personality is still the same. Our desires for light, truth and knowledge, or our desires for darkness, sin and lies, will all be there after we die. We will not suddenly be a different person. Truly we will be the same. All appetites, desires, challenges, love, hope, faith, will be the same. Our thoughts during death will be our thoughts after death. Our desire for good or evil will continue to be our desires after this life. This is why it is so important to choose who we want to become in this life. That’s why we have this life. To develope and refine who we truly want to be. For truly the winner of this battle is already known the only thing that is not known is which side of the field you are going to be on. Which side do you fight for, good or bad. There is no in between. Your are on Gods side or Lucifers. We are not perfect beings, but heavenly beings, children of the God, come here to learn. When we trust in Him and have faith in His words the sting of death is gone and we can look forward to living with God again. The choice is yours, the choice is mine. Which home do you want to call Eternity. Death holds no sting!!!! For truly in it we can rejoice. We are sad because we loved those that have gone on before us. We can also find happiness in our righteous brothers and sisters who have passed their test and gained knowledge so they can proceed to the next steps of eternity.
Truly God has left us a road to victory. It is simply up to us to find it and take it, then never leave it!!!!!
