The Sting of Death

At least 84, including 2 Americans, dead after truck rams crowd in France


Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?”
The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. but thanks be to God
who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Therefore, my beloved, be firm, steadfast, always fully devoted to the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.
​1 Cor 15:55-58


Where would we be without out faith in the presence of the Risen Christ who is with us constantly in our life's journey? He has defeated death by his own death.  He has restored life through his own resurrection.  When death comes to us, even in horrible violent ways, our lives are not ended, they are changed.

As we pray for the recent victims of terrorism in France, for their families and loved ones and for their country, may they be filled with the strength and presence of the Risen Lord.  "Oh Church, stand in the light!  Our God is not dead, He's Alive, He's Alive!"  (Matt Maher)
