Another funeral today. One of the reflections referred to this life
closing, but not ending. Not only does
this reflection remind me that Christians believe in eternal life. This life closes but that’s not the end of
life.
Think of all the “closings” you've had, in your
life: close of high school, close of a high school romance, close of college
life, close of a career, close of friendships, etc. In each of these, life did not end. Life continue onto something different.
So it will be in death.
