1 Thessalonians 4:14 New International Version (NIV)
14 For we believe that Jesus died and rose
again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have
fallen asleep in him.
As horrible as the Cross was, it wasn't the final chapter of
the Jesus story. Jesus died and then rose again. We can believe two things
because of Jesus' resurrection: 1) that Jesus will return in glorious victory
for those who have believed in him, and 2) that we will be with those we love
who have fallen asleep in Christ when Jesus comes again.
Thought for today:
Do I give up hope too easily? Do I follow a pattern of “all is lost behavior
when I do lose hope?
