When someone dies, usually our reaction is sadness. Which ofcourse is understandable, because you will miss that person, and if that certain somone was really close to you, there will be that void that probably no one else can fill. It can be a very empty feeling, and very hard to deal with at times.
But there is also hope. In my mind, when someone passes away, they're doing just that. If that person accepting Christ, then they are only passing on to a much better place. Think about it. God's Kingdom. Now, I know you've seen some beautiful places on this earth. Whether you visited or whether you've seen pictures, there are some really, really nice places out there. But you have to understand, this is God's Kingdom. The ultimate of ultimates. Our minds probably cannot comprehend such beauty. Where else would you want to be, or want a loved one to be.
And even that with in mind, we should celebrate. Ofcourse not celebrate that their gone, but celebrate their life. That we had the time that God allowed us to have with them. And celebrate the life you still have, before it's your time to go.
