Message to those who have lost a son or daughter
Today, you're sad and feeling strong and painful sense of irreparable loss of a son or daughter of a very dear. This pain is immense and incomparable. Unfortunately, death is part of our life. That was not the original will of our God, for our God has no part with evil and with much less death.
Fortunately, our God has not forsaken us in this world dominated by sin, pain, suffering and death.
By His grace and mercy, today our hearts can receive through His word the wonderful hope that we can count on a future life truly different and happy. Fortunately, hope is not dead and we meet again with our dear eternity.
Today, you, the immense pain he suffered invaded your heart, you are unfortunately experiencing a strong sense of loss and a huge void. Your boy or a girl you loved is no longer physically, by his side. It is hard to accept. It is hard to understand.
However you will find the answers only our beloved is God who has the answers to such things.
So the best we can do at this point is not to surrender to deep sadness, depression and hopelessness.
Sad and downcast at such a painful as this is something more than normal. That's part of this step so painful, but surrender to depression, discouragement and hopelessness is not the best solution.
Look to the future. There is a new life ahead. Today is the beginning of your new life. Not the life you dreamed. Is not the life you planned, but that's life she has left. Help other people. Practice well and fill your time with things uplifting and heart.
I know it's hard, but nonetheless trust God. Even if everything does not cooperate for this, though your heart resists it, yet, trust God. It is His will that your comfort, consolation and hope.
Your son or his beloved daughter, today, are no longer physically at your side. But know that this short distance, although it is for us a longer time than usual, he is actually spiritually, much smaller than we think. It's as if your beloved son or his beloved daughter took a very long journey. A trip much longer than usual. And indeed it is so. The word of God teaches us that your son or daughter is sleeping right now. You may wonder: Sleeping?
- How so?
The Lord Jesus taught us:
And having thus spoken, he added: Lazarus our friend sleepeth, but I'll wake it from sleep. - John 11:11
The Lord Jesus showed us what happens when one part of the world: A person sleeps the sleep of death. To our mind, death is but a rest. It is a transitional time for us, it seems to take forever, but in the spiritual world is not so. Our life before God is only a breath or a simple steam that rises and then dissipates into the air:
3 Thou turnest man to dust, and sayest, Return, ye children of men!
4 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
5 Thou waves as with a flood, they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass that grows;
6 in the morning grows and flourishes; afternoon cut and dry.
Ps 90:3 to 6
Man is like a breath, his days are like a passing shadow. - Psalm 144:4
However, do not know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? Even a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. - James 4:14
Is there another word of God also teaches us about this unknown and mysterious stage of our lives:
The dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward, for the memory of them is forgotten. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun. Ecc 9:5 to 6
Let us rejoice! Our sons and daughters who departed this life no longer suffer more. They have no despair, no longer have fear and rest in the loving arms of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Even if you really want your son or daughter by his side, I believe that there is in the universe a better place for them to be? Just trust in God.
When you reach the big time, the day of the return of the Lord Jesus Christ, the sons and daughters of God who have departed this life and are stored in the heart of our God, and those who will be raptured alive, all will be transformed by Him so that we can living together our eternal life alongside our dear and next to our loving God.
The Apostle Paul taught:
Your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. - Col 4 to 3:3
13 We do not, brethren, have you ignorant concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not as others who have no hope.
14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in God through Jesus, make them bring with him.
15 We tell you then it is the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ will rise first.
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.
1 Thessalonians 4:13 to 18
Therefore the Lord Jesus Christ told us:
Not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. - John 14:1
Jesus said to her: I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, though he die, yet shall he live; - John 11:25
Because this is the will of my Father, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him on the last day. - John 6:40
No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent me draw him: and I will raise him on the last day. - John 6:44
Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. - John 6:54
In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you, I go to prepare a place for you. - John 14:2
Dear! We should be deeply depressed and despondent over the death of a son or daughter. Right now it is important that we have the hope and the certainty of reunion which reveals the word of God, and that our beloved boys and girls are not suffering anymore and neither are sad.
Surely our little ones are much better than us, because I do not live in this world of sin and are ready and prepared to meet the Lord of Glory in your back take all his sons and daughters for the New Jerusalem, the Eternal City, where there will be pain, suffering, lie, sin, sickness and even death.
In the New Jerusalem there is not even our beloved sun, it is the glory of our God whom we will warm and enlighten us. Is not that wonderful. It is there that we meet again our beloved little boys and girls. We will soon come back to find us. So we should not be sad because our loved ones were in front of us. When the day comes that great reunion with our God and our loved ones, we finally embrace our happiness and return in an extraordinary way to flood our hearts Amen!
He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there any more sorrow, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. He added, Write: for these words are trustworthy and true. He told me, It is done: I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. The one who is thirsty I will give to drink from the fountain of the water of life. He who overcomes shall inherit these things, and I will be his God and he shall be my son. - Revelation 21: 4-7
I leave you peace, my peace I give unto you I do not give to you as the world gives. Not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. - John 14:27
Amen and thank God. Stay in the peace of the Lord Jesus Christ.
