If You’re Worried About Dying

UPDATE ON DEBBIE’S SURGERY: All of the surgery was able to be done robotically! The right upper lobe with the 2 tumors and the difficult malignant lymph nodes were removed, except for 2 or 3 that need to be biopsied. The most concerning lymph node was removed successfully. Very importantly, they did not have to use a large incision to access it. Praise God for this good news, for an excellent surgery, and thank you all for your faithful prayers!

I thought I killed a bee, but realized I only stunned it as I watched it begin moving. There’s a difference between stunning something and killing, or abolishing, it. 

When you think about death, does it worry you? Here’s the deal, and it’s great news. Second Timothy 1:10 assures us that we don’t need to worry about death. Why? The verse explains that when Christ died on the cross, He didn’t stun death. Rather, “…our Savior Christ Jesus, abolished death and brought life and immortality to light…” 

In other words, when our body ceases to live, our spirit continues to live. Those who have placed their faith in Christ and are indwelt by Christ’s Holy Spirit will live eternally in His glorious presence. That is something to celebrate, not fear. 

Lord Jesus Savior, I praise You that You ABOLISHED DEATH. Thank You for eternal life in You. 

The Gospel of John is full of examples of Jesus seeking and saving the lost. It also recounts the death and resurrection of Jesus, which made a way for all to come to Him for salvation and receive eternal life. Access Debbie’s free online Bible study of John HERE.
