Who was the hardest to say goodbye to? For me it was my mother. Just days before she passed away I had to say goodbye. Tell her, "Its OK to let go." Saying Goodbye is the hardest, saddest thing we will ever have to do and we will say it to so many. But aren't we suppose to celebrate their passing? Not be sad? Their not hurting anymore. Their bodies are new and perfect. The Bible tells us...
God will give us glorious immortal bodies.Philippians 3:21and 1 Corinthians 15:51-53. All Physical deformities will be cured. (The eye of the blind will be opened, the ears of the deaf unstopped and the crippled healed.) Isaiah 35:3-6. They will build houses and inhabit them. They will plant vineyards and eat the fruit of them. Isaiah 65:21-23. The wolf and lamb will feed together. God's New Kingdom will be one of tranquil peace. Isaiah 65:25. We will fellowship with Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and the greatest minds of the ages forever. Matthew 8:11.
When my time comes to leave this earth and my loved ones have to say goodbye, I don't want them to be sad for me. I want them to celebrate my new life and know that I only go before them until we say, Hello. So don't cry for me down here! Be happy, love and be there for each other, and celebrate!
Yeah when I get where I'm going
There'll be only happy tears
I will shed the sins and struggles
I have carried all these years
And I'll leave my heart wide open
I will love and have no fear
Yeah when I get where I'm going
Don't cry for me down here
But when I get where I'm going
And I see my maker's face
I'll stand forever in the light
Of his amazing grace
Yeah when I get where I'm going
There'll be only happy tears
I will love and have no fear
When I get where I'm going
Yeah when I get where I'm going
And I see my maker's face
I'll stand forever in the light
Of his amazing grace
Yeah when I get where I'm going
There'll be only happy tears
I will love and have no fear
When I get where I'm going
Yeah when I get where I'm going
