By The Savior's Power

Death is not something we like to think about. I know I don’t. But it just keeps happening, doesn’t it?

We’ve probably all gone to school with, or seen a movie about, someone who talked about death a lot. For some in our culture, it can be an unhealthy obsession. Yet I’m grateful that the Bible speaks so plainly and so often of death, not as fixation but as freedom!

In our lives as Christ followers, death is a current reality, and it brings with it terrible sadness, grief and hardship. This is not what God’s beautiful created world was supposed to be like. But the story is not over. Jesus gave up His very life for us. Our death now, painful as it may be, will one day be little more than the door we walked through into the eternal life of goodness and glory with Him.

We feel the pain of this life so acutely. It is real. And Jesus is with us in this. And still He promises us even more. Our redeemer, our great defender. The overcomer, Christ the victor. By his life and death, we have the future of His presence with us in the new heavens and the new earth, with full, rich lives in the light and praise of His glory.

So when we face hardships today, even death, we will grieve, but not as those with no hope. We have been rescued by the Savior’s power!
