ars moriendi 2|4: sitting with the dead
soul logic everlasting does not change heaven logos spirit
body irrational temporary steady state of decay earth sarx flesh
“the old life that we lived so fondly together is untouched, unchanged�
God never gives you more than you can handle. Everything happens for a reason. They're in a better place. God needed another angel. God needed another rose in his garden. It was just her time. God was saving her from something worse than death. Another angel got her wings. He's not in pain anymore. Think of all those happy reunions in heaven. God only tests those strong enough to handle it. This is really the best possible thing that could happen to him. They wouldn't want us to cry for them, because they're so happy up there. God is teaching you a lesson. Your job is to find out what the lesson is. At least you still have the other child. God works in mysterious ways. It's all part of God's plan. They'll be watching over you from heaven. At least it was over quick. You know, if you really believe in heaven...grief is pretty selfish. God is in control. Now you can take the insurance money and go on that dream vacation.
