life after death

There is life after death.

My 3rd uncle just went to heaven this morning. He's in a far better place, where there's no more suffering, no more tears. Instead there is joy and peace forevermore in His presence. Praise God for eternal life through Jesus!

I believe he can meet the Lord face to face, knowing that he's done much for Him, having lived a full, obedient life unto Him, and having influenced lives for Him.

Still, there's gonna be grieving over the loss that all of us, especially his immediate family and siblings, will face. But as Paul says in 1 Thessalonians 4:13, we (do not) sorrow as others who have no hope. We have hope that we will meet him again when we too cross over to eternity.

In the meantime, for those who remain, there is divine comfort and peace that the Holy Spirit gives - peace that passes all understanding.
