I ave told the truth about things all of my life, and have suffered for it. All of the liberal leftists only know how to lie.
End of life equals GRADUATION to the next life. God bless.
Let the hate in your heart go.... forgive those who have wronged you and thank the people who have affected your life in a positive way.!! We will all see you around the bend fellow freeper. (Put in a good word for me!)
Bless you Bob. May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you.
Spend some time in the Word and prayer...the ordinary means of grace are as effectual now as they ever were, no matter your station in life.
If there are any broken relationships, make a move to mend them. Maybe share your faith with someone near you.
Be at peace. Prayers for you.

“Lord Jesus Christ, son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.”
Followed by: “From my heart, I forgive all my enemies and all who have offended me.”
God bless you.

Well then, I hope you are there to witness when He stands in Judgement of them all.
Be at peace Bob. Leave battles to the rest of us. Make peace with whomever you need to. Forgive who you can and ask forgiveness if you need to. Prayers for you.
God Bless You. May your Spirit be joyful with anticipation of meeting our Lord Jesus Christ. “ I find the desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, The most probable explanation is that, I was made for another world.” CS Lewis.

I would cross into the other side in peace.
If there was any forgiving to do, I would attend to the forgiving.
I would soak up as much love as possible.
I would want my last moments to be full of love, peace, and the anticipation of meeting Jesus. Those are the only things to carry to the other side.
Be comforted that God will attend to all that is wicked and unrepentant.
May God bless & save you, and your family.
Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.
You fought the fight. I know that. I pray you believe in the path to eternal salvation. Be faithful.
“I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”
God bless.
My dear departed mother loved this poem more than any other:
Abou Ben Adhem (may his tribe increase!)
Awoke one night from a deep dream of peace,
And saw, within the moonlight in his room,
Making it rich, and like a lily in bloom,
An angel writing in a book of gold:—
Exceeding peace had made Ben Adhem bold,
And to the Presence in the room he said
“What writest thou?”—The vision raised its head,
And with a look made of all sweet accord,
Answered “The names of those who love the Lord.”
“And is mine one?” said Abou. “Nay, not so,”
Replied the angel. Abou spoke more low,
But cheerly still, and said “I pray thee, then,
Write me as one that loves his fellow men.”
The angel wrote, and vanished. The next night
It came again with a great wakening light,
And showed the names whom love of God had blessed,
And lo! Ben Adhem’s name led all the rest.
"taxcontrol" nailed it for me in his #40:
List the most important people in your life. Put them in order. Write a letter to each one explaining why they are important to you. In that letter, ask for their forgiveness for any hurt or harm you may have caused. Ask a friend to mail them the day you die.
You might be surprised to find that after that sizable effort you have time left over and I would suggest expanding the work beyond "the most important" to include those with whom you have had more than just incidental involvement.
Have family members help you recall such individuals and help you find their current mailing addresses.
What a wonderful way for any of us to leave...with the knowledge of an as-clean-as-possible slate. Please keep us posted on your project.
What Laz said. Say whatever you want to whomever you want, eat whatever you feel like eating, whatever makes you happy. Peace and God bless.
Thank him for the life he gave you. Thank him for the family he gave you. Apologize for whatever messes you’ve made over the years, and ask him to bring you home.
Then, when the time comes, go home to your Father. He knows you.
And, I agree with others. Until the time comes, turn off the news. None of that matters at this point. Well, OK, watch whatever you want... but really, politics doesn’t matter much when you are getting ready to graduate. We all die; we don’t all have the chance to say goodbye. Don’t say anything that’s going to unnecessarily burden someone on this side. Some truths can just go to the grave with you.
Dylan Thomas.
With that said, without God peace & joy are but a dream out of grasp. Jesus is the way to redemption, even up to the moment of our passing this mortal coil, you but have to simply believe He is our propitiation to a loving & holy God.
