1 Korintus 15:20

We all have a common denominator. We will die. I will die. You will die. Death will defeat you. You won’t be able to dodge it, sidestep it, trick it or make it disappear. But then there is Jesus, the man who defeated the grave. Jesus stood toe to toe with the grave and defeated death. When Jesus talks, the grave speaks.

Kita semua akan mengalami masa-masa di dalam “lembah kekelaman”. Ketika orang yang kita kasihi meninggal, kita mungkin bergumul dengan penyesalan, kemarahan, dan kepedihan mendalam yang tak terucapkan dengan kata-kata. Kita tidak perlu sendirian menanggung pergumulan-pergumulan berat ini. Daud menunjukkan kepada kita bagaimana menghadapi kelamnya lembah itu.

We're always told, "It's just another part of life," but trite sayings don't make the sting of losing a loved one any less painful. Learn to run to God when facing one of life's most difficult challenges.
