Day By Day With Billy Graham / Hope Beyond Death

Day By Day With Billy Graham

Day 244 of 366 Hope Beyond Death We don't like to talk about death; it's the forbidden subject of our generation. Yet it's real for all of us. Sometimes on television I see motion pictures featuring actors who are no longer living. They seem very much alive in the picture, but they are dead. Some of them were my personal friends. Death is real, and when we die, that is a battle we have to fight all alone. Nobody can be with us in that hour, but David said he had found an answer that would take the fear of death away. David said that there is an answer to death, there is a hope beyond death. That hope is centered in the risen Christ. Paul wrote that to be "absent from the body" is to be "present with the Lord." So the fear of death is removed. Daily Prayer Lord Jesus, with complete trust I look toward that day when my soul will be with You for eternity. Proverbs 14:32 NASB 32 The wicked is thrust down by his wrongdoing, But the righteous has a refuge when he dies.
