After a loved one passes, we often look for the reassurance of a better place where they are, and waiting for us.
Some believe the Lord of Heaven sends dreams in the night to instruct us (Psalms 16:7), or to give us peace (Bible Promises About Dreams).
Parents, families, and friends who have lost a loved one to substance use overdose all too often are searching for this reassurance of a 'better' place, a 'healing' place, where there loved one is no longer suffering or in pain
This dream came to me early Monday morning. In the dream, someone came and told me Mark had passed away. I argued, crying, he had not. The next moment he walked through the door, and I said, "See, he is very much alive."
Perhaps the reassurance Job received in his trials can apply to us even today. "I know that my Redeemer lives." I know Mark and I shall be reunited one day, and what a happy reunion that will be!
Leigh and I hope that sharing our experiences will bring peace and comfort to those who are suffering grief, as we are.
