When Jesus wept by the tomb of Lazarus, He signaled to all of us that itβs appropriate to grieve when a loved one dies (John 11:35). But Paul advises us not to βsorrow as others who have no hopeβ (1 Thessalonians 4:13). Our loved one has made it to heaven before us, but weβre still on earth for a little while to continue serving the Lord.
When Davidβs child died, he got up and ate and worshiped God because he knew he would be reunited with his child in heaven. God gives us these biblical stories so we can know of His compassion and goodness. By studying the subject of heaven in the Bible, weβre filling our hearts with the land of the living, with the home of our dear ones in Christ who have gone before.
Take time each day to spend in the Word so you might find comfort in sorrow and perseverance in your current labors.
