God has never left us alone in any area of our life
God has never left us alone in any area of our life
Joh 19:25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.
Joh 19:26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!
Joh 19:27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.
Even with the dying of our saviour Jesus Christ as well as man, death leaves an emptiness in the life of the survivors.
Regardless of our faith, lifestyle, social status or race, the death of a family member or close friend leaves a void.
Wives lose husbands, husbands-wives, children parents, parents a child, employer loses a valued worker and so on...
Many times we will say that that person is irreplaceable and we can’t phantom how we will get alone as usual without them.
But as time goes on we discover that we survive and continue to thrive and progress with those that are left or even a new replacement comes and exceeds our expectations.
But what we discover in this life is that Jesus:
Has someone or something already in place to support our needs
He has someone or something that He will bring into our path for the void that was left.
And Jesus has predestined us for the purpose of filling that emptiness of that loss.
Note God knew that the lamb would be in the brush for Abraham to replace Isaac as a sacrifice.
He knows what you have need of and has planned the fulfillment of any loss that death will cause.
Many times the replacement is you yourself. You are asking God who can I depend on now, Lord where can I go for help, but God now wants to raise you up as your own support system.
Just because death has come that does not say that God has been removed out of the picture.
Heb 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
Jesus told his disciples that I will not leave you comfortless, but I will send you another comforter which is the Holy Ghost..
What ever you lose in this life I know how to replace and supplement.
God even says in Mar 10:29 And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,
Mar 10:30 But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.
Carolyn you have been the replacement for your family so many faithful times...
Even the angels asks the disciples on the mount of Christ’s resurrection …Why do you stand gazing into the clouds that same Jesus who you saw being taking up will in the same manner come back again upon the clouds....
Death is not a permanent void for the faithful believer....Jesus says I will fill that emptiness and I will come to you and you will live with me and your loves one who died in Me.
God will fill every empty space. He will wipe away all tears…He will heal every sickness....He will make every day Sunday and we will rejoice forever with no empty places. Amen...
