I wonder if you are a parent or grandparent who when you return home after traveling find young children voices asking “so, what did you bring for me?”, as they hold out their little hands to you expecting you might have a gift or a surprise for them?
Yesterday we looked closely at a very powerful statement made by Paul regarding an experience all of us will have...death! We saw that ‘death’ is actually ‘departure’ when our soul/spirit will leave our human body and go to either Paradise or Hades and continue living, either with Jesus or separated from God.
