Dying with style

Since the new year started I have participated in four funerals.  We tend to shy away from thoughts of death but If we all have something in common, it is death.

Another thing we have in common is the legacy we leave as we pass on into eternity. One could say that each day that we are closer to death but I don't fear death... I want to live so victoriously that  death fears me.  As I observe people at all these funerals you can tell the people who have lived well. These are the people who seem to always be there in spirit, who live on people hearts, minds, phrases,  and actions. These people are  constantly resurrected in smile-filled memories and "remember when moments".

I believe that If I continue to live for Jesus (and I will) death will fear me...what I mean is that I will never die, my presence will remain by the influence I had on people.  I choose to die with style  how about you?
