As we listen to this tune, as well as remembering, with thanks, - TopicsExpress



          

As we listen to this tune, as well as remembering, with thanks, the martyrs of the past, it is good to also remember those of today, perhaps some being martyred even as we listen to this. Let us pray for all who are suffering persecution and martyrdom still in this day and age, for strength, comfort and courage in what they have to face. As Christians though, in reality death, even in martyrdom witnessing to the love of God even to being murdered for it, is not a tragedy. Our faith and Christian hope reminds us that we simply pass through a door into the life that we were created for in the first place in Heaven with the Lord and his angels and saints. Naturally, like any parting, death is sorrowful, but the light of the Lord shines through even that darkness when we have faith in him. We will all meet again in the better life ahead. Meanwhile on earth we can begin to experience this resurrected life in the Lord and we dont have to wait until our deaths for this, rather it is much better not to ! youtu.be/mXA7hQcV5xI
