I have been curious about death for most of my life. My first novel was about the Angel of Death, Chronicles of Thanatos the Reaper. It is an attempt to show why death is a necessary part of life and a mercy from the Father.
This seems to deny the faith of those who follow Christ. If where we are headed is so much better, should we not anticipate it with joy? I also think it belies our faith that we talk about the dead in the past tense. Those who have journeyed to that undiscovered country are more alive than we are.
What I must embrace is that I am already dead. I have been since birth. I am made of dirt, will return to dirt but there will be a day when Jesus draws me from the dirt to reunite my body and spirit. What we fear is not the reaper but, rather, the unknown. Fearing what we do not know is at the base of all that we do that is wrong.
As we move on to other thoughts and questions, I am determined to see that all that is ill in this life is fleeting. All that will last is based in love, Dear Reader. We can live in the midst of all this death and create life through that love. That, however, is just this dead man’s opinion.
Wishing you joy in the journey,

a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a homeowner. He liberally
hands out new and old things from his great treasure store.”
