How comforting to know that the Lord is always beside me, so near He is and between my breath, until I breathe my last when I will see Him. What can be more calming to death than the thought that when I leave this mortal body, His reality will manifest. It gives me the shiver, a happiness in the future so profound, yet as deep as the happiness I so anticipate, is the fear that if had lived my life outside His grace, then I would never see Him. What suffering is more painful? I just have to follow the commandments and His teachings, then I will not lose my way to His nearness.
Matthew 28:16-20
The eleven disciples set out for Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had arranged to meet them. When they saw Him, they fell down before Him, though some hesitated. Jesus came up and spoke to them. He said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Go, therefore, make disciples of all the nations; baptize them in The Name of The Father and The Son and of The Holy Spirit, and teach them to observe all the commands I gave you. And know that I am with you always; yes, to the end of time.
