Great Cloud of Witnesses...
Tuesday's Trust
What Did Jesus Christ's
Death and Resurrection Do
for My Child Who Died?
Life's Breath!
Up from the grave He arose,
And with that move, He conquered death,
And with that truth, this same truth goes...
At your death, He restored Life's breath!
Though I grieve, I must, too, rejoice:
As Death stole my heart, Life restored your voice!
Come, Lord Jesus, O quickly come~
In my life, may Your will be done.
Help us know though while here we'll mourn,
On that Day, sweetest joy is born.
Lives removed due to Death's cold blow
Will be rejoined ending all earth's woe,
For all those who bow their knees to You
Will weep with joy when we're restored anew,
And live, together, forever with You!
Jesus said to her,
"I am the resurrection and the life.
He who believes in Me will live,
even though he dies,
and whoever lives
and believes in Me will never die..."
~John 11:25-26, NIV
*****
Jesus: God is the God of the living
Jesus replied,
...But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
~Matthew 22:31-32, KJV
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses...
~Hebrews 12:1a, NIV
--Jesus, according to John in The New International Version of the Bible, and to Matthew in the King James Bible (22:31.32)
