It's interesting isn't it that there seem to be more and more people who don't believe in God...... "I don't need to believe in an imaginary fairy in the sky." I've heard that and numerous similar remarks from many of them. And yet.
Why can they tell me there isn't a God and I can't tell them there isn't a Higgs boson particle or whatever it's called. And just for their information, do they really, truly know how the universe began? Nope. It's pure speculation. It's science they'll say. And in reply I'll say, it's religion.
I have mine, you have yours. But if your science can believe in things none of us will ever see, don't tell me my religion can't believe in things YOU won't ever see.
For I know there is a God. I have had my little qualms of doubt like any other person. But I've had a couple of experiences that PROVE to me there is a God.
I am the lucky one. I wish everyone else could have such a thing happen.....and I don't know why they don't. Or, maybe they do but choose not to believe what happened was God.
Death isn't as frightening when you know you are entering a whole new experience. I have so many patients tell me they aren't afraid to die. In fact, they welcome it and wait for it, and yes, some of them pray and beg for it. It's the eternal rest, peace, and a world of love and wonder. We can't see it yet, but we know it's there.
If you look, every day you'll see a little bit of it somewhere.

I have lost so many
patients recently and some of them I adored. If only I had more time! That is a familiar lament however, and time is not given to all in equal measure.
What would I do if I had more time with the patients I adore? I'd ask them lots of questions. About life. About happiness. About lessons learned and battles won. I'd want to know how they became the way they are, the wonderful, perfect people that I meet.
I will miss them so much, and yet because I believe in heaven, I believe I will see them again. I can't wait!
