Nor have I been for a long while. When I awoke from my 5 heart by-passes in March 2004, I felt as if (and rightly so) I had been given a "new life" here upon this earth. Yet, I have since then also felt a much closer connection to God and Jesus Christ, my Savior. I am ready to go, whenever the call comes. I am not seeking it, yet I am ready. Thanks for this post today, Greg. Whatever time I have left on this earth, I hope to use wisely. God bless!! Dee I am not afraid of death. Nor have I been for a long while.

Give her a hug for us. Nothing like resurrection power to change us–not that I need anything like that, you understand. Peace. Happy birthday to Jessica! Give her a hug for us.

I'd never caught that connection. But I do know that death isn't something we're supposed to be afraid of. It's not friend, but it's an enemy we don't have to fear.
