This morning and today has been one of a few I would rather never again face or bear again. Are loved cat Marcus was discovered on the road lifeless by Ben as he left to go to work with our friend. I can't write the pain and grief I feel, there are no words. But in light of my grief Christ always, always is my comforter. In the beginning God created man, and he created animals as a companion for man, yet they were not the suitable perfect companion, yet still were good. Marcus was a good companion, he was part of our family, and although he is gone and I realize more and more through my own loss and grief that death is the consequence of sin, and I HATE sin, for through it comes death and sadness, tears, and loss. I long for Christ's return, I hate sin, I hate death! I await our Lord and Savior who will restore us with new bodies, ones that will never die or decay, ones that can stand in the presence of His glory. I write to share that death will not have a hold on us if we are in Christ, and although my thoughts were spurned through the loss of my beloved cat, how much more are we, people, worth to our heavenly Father. Death is forever if we are without Christ, and tears in Hell are for eternity. I am comforted because I have Christ, and He wipes my tears away and gives in me a longing to be with Him forever, for eternity.
