Aug 15.00: Light For The Day - "Christians Never Say Goodbye"

-- 2 Corinthians 4:14 (RSV)
"knowing that he who raised the Lord Jesus will
raise us also with Jesus and bring us with you into
his presence."

Vi biet rang Dang da khien Chua Jesus song lai,
cung se lam cho chung toi song lai voi Duc Chua Jesus
va lam cho chung ta se ung hau truoc mat Ngai.

--------------------------
"Christians"; never say goodbye,
for only our earthly body dies.
Our soul is lifted to heaven above,
by grace and mercy of God in love.

No flood or fire, hate or crime,
no pain or suffering at any time.
Illuminated by the Savior's light,
our past will disappear from sight.

United with our family and friends,
we'll live in joy that never ends.
The place that Jesus has prepared,
there's nothing on earth, that can compare.

For when the trumpet sounds, we'll see,
Our Savior and where our loved ones will be.
Reunited in the air, to our heavenly home,
with the heavenly hosts, and our Father there.

-- Valerie Rousseau.

-----------------------

-- Psalms 89:47-48 (TEV)
"Remember how short my life is;
Remember that you created all of us mortal!
Who can live and never die?
How can we humans keep ourselves from the grave?"

-- Ecclesiates 12:7 (TEV) 
"And the dust returns to the earth as it was, 
And the spirit returns to God who gave it."
