In The Book of John, in The King James Bible, Jesus said:
“In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.”
- John 14:2 (KJV)
I do not presume to know God’s thoughts, or His plans in my life, when a good friend passes away at a young age, but I know that my friend Greg lost his best friend and hero when his dad, George, passed away unexpectedly. I think of the ultimate release from earthly suffering in so many ways, and also this promise from The Book of Revelations:
“To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.”
- Revelations 3:21 (KJV)
I am grateful to God for His promises of eternal life for those who believe in Him, as we are reminded in The Book of Acts:
“And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.”
- Acts 16:30-31 (KJV)
Mostly, I am thankful that George and Greg Viger were a part of my life, and that they are together again!
