Because of what He did for me, this is not goodbye....

"Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?"

1 Corinthians 15:55

"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son,

that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life."

John 3:16

"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in Me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am."

John 14:1-3

Thank you, God for sending your only Son to die for me so that I may join you one day in Heaven. Thank you, Father, for your promise that if I have Christ in me, I will have eternal life. Thank you for loving me so much that you want better for me than this fallen world. Thank you that I will see Rebekah again because of your sacrifice of a spotless Lamb. It may seem like a lifetime to me, but to her it is only a blink of an eye. Thank you for your love and forgiveness of sin. In Jesus' name, Amen.
