Dying seems so normal because it happens to everyone and so it is tempting to think that it is just a part of the life that God designed for us…but it isn’t. Death is not our friend, nor is it something we should just “get used to” simply because it seems inevitable. Death is the consequence of sin and our enemy…an enemy that has been defeated by Christ, who took away the sin of the world. As believers in him we have sure and certain hope in the face of death, the hope of a real, eternal, physical, life in a world as God originally intended it to be.
