Subject: Will you see lost loved ones in heaven? |
Bible Note: My friend, I grieve with you. If the way I say this doesn't sound compassionate, forgive me. But you say others have come to the Lord by what happened to Chris. I think that is a true miracle but I don't think that God caused your son's death to bring others into the kingdom. I don't believe God does that. I once heard a woman say that her child died so that God would have another flower in His Garden. If God wants flowers in His Garden He can create them, after all, He is still in the creation business. No I believe that what happened to Chris was an accident. Unfortunately that does not help us when we grieve for him. God Bless you my brother and I pray that God will help you to get over this. I have never lost a child and pray everyday that I do not have to go through what you and your wife are going through. I had a son go to prison for eight years and I could do nothing to stop it. He was a born-again believer at the time but he got caught up in drugs and would not listen to me. I went through pure hell mentally and almost gave up physically. My wife and I lived that nightmare for eight long years but he is at home now and I praise God for helping Him through some very tough times. Some say that grief helps us to become stronger in the Lord, but I don't believe that. I do know this, your son is awaiting you in heaven. |
