LOSING OUR LIVES
My friend JC recently gave me a profound quote. He said, “Some people have died…others have lost their life…because of COVID 19.”
This is very true and sad on both points. We try to remember that we are Third Day people, Resurrection People and those who overcome death by the power of God. Our orientation and doctrine is to overcome the fear and fact of death. “Oh, death where is your victory, Oh, death where is your sting?”
Even saying and knowing all of these things does not always help a whole lot in crisis. But what else can we say or do?
“I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?” Jesus
