Early this morning my Grandfather passed away. He fought for a long time - much longer than the doctors thought. They just can't account for somebody's will to live. I'm thankful that he got to meet Autumn while he was still feeling a little better. I can tell her how he called her a "little fatty" because of her chunky (yet adorable) thighs. I pray that he's at peace and marveling at God's glorious kingdom.
"Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so you do not grieve like those who have no hope. We believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.(1 Thes 4:13-14)...Our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who by the power which enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body. (Phil 3:20-21)"
