Sometimes we can go days and weeks without knowing anyone who has passed away. And then there are other times when there is a number of people we know who have died. Especially in smaller towns where we tend to know or know of about everyone.

That is what is happening the last bit locally.

Here is something the Bible has to say about living and dying:

"The path of the godly leads to life.
So why fear death?"

~ Psalm 12:28 LAB

*

Bible Commentary:  "For many, death is a darkened door at the end of their lives, a passageway to an unknown and feared destiny. But for God's peoplle,death is a bright doorway to a new and better life. So why do we fear death? Is it because of the pain we expect, the separation from loved ones, the surprise of it? God can help us deal with those fears. He has shown us that death is just another step in the continuing eternal life we began when we started to follow him. Death is not final; it is the first step into eternity."
