My dad died several years ago from cancer. One night when I was sitting up with him, he told me that he wsa scared and wasn't sure how to die and this thought popped into me head: when someone dies and is resuscitated, they often speak of seeing this beautiful light, and it is often thought that this light is something external drawing them away from this world. But, I think it is the love breaking out of our bodies and taking us to God and all the people we love - connecting us forever.

Thank you so much, Nadia🙏

My husband, who was also a recovering alcoholic, died pretty suddenly at age 75 of cardiac arrest just 6 weeks ago. Truly I can say that after being with him for 50 years(most if it in AlAnon), I am hard pressed to even remember his shortcomings, which often in this life felt very challenging!

The outpouring of love at the funeral…all the people that showed up who had been recipients of his giving away his recovery, was such a testimony me that God truly does us the weak, the sick, the diseased and dysfunctional to carry out His kingdom here on earth. I saw the rest of the story and I am totally sure that our God is nothing but total Grace, Mercy & Abundance!

I love your preaching 🙌🏼
