“I’m gonna die, you’re gonna die, and it’s gonna be sweet, dawg!”
That’s what my friend Brian said (or rather, exuberantly declared) while we were on our way to church,and I know that out of context, it seems . . . odd. But we were discussing the inevitability of death and how we believers can talk about it candidly and without fear.
We are quite literally immortal until the Lord calls us home. David states in Psalm 31:14-15a, “But I trust in you, O Lord; I say, ‘You are my God. My times are in your hand.'” At the “time” of his choosing, we’ll walk through that door called death into his presence, where we will remain for all eternity.
And yes, Brian, it’ll be very sweet.
Made for Eternity
