This is not how it was supposed to end. My heart is broken beyond description. I’m so glad we had that conversation on Thursday, May 30, 2024. The last words you spoke to me were “I Love You”. I will cherish that moment until I, Lord Willing, see you again in eternity. I love you with all my heart. Thank you Lord Jesus for breaking the chains of death and giving us everlasting life!! “who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, but is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:” ‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭1‬:‭9‬-‭10‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.” ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭15‬:‭26‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; and deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.” ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭2‬:‭14‬-‭15‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭21‬:‭4‬-‭5‬ ‭KJV‬‬ By God’s grace, in Jesus name, by the power of the Holy Spirit, I stand upon His Holy Word!!!
