Death Has Been Rendered Defeated

by shani4jc

“Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?” 1 Corinthians 15:55

Today our family mourns the unexpected loss of a very dear loved one.  Our hearts are broken over her passing and we know life will never be the same without her. However, we have the assurance that we will see her again and that will bring us great comfort over the next few hours, days, weeks, months, and years. Her death may sting for a time, but, it will not have the final word. Jesus and Jesus alone has the final word! He has already overcome the grave and rendered death defeated. Physical death is a very real part of this world, but because of Jesus, our spirit will never die. Today our hearts are heavy, but one day, our mourning will turn to joy when we will not only see our loved one again, but we will see the One who gives us eternal life face to face!
