If there is one thing we all have in common it is that one day we will die, unless the Lord returns first.
As a Christian, I have been promised eternal life through faith in Christ. This means that I have no fear of death, but instead an eternal hope. Once I pass from this life I will enter a new life where there is no sin, no pain and I will be like the man in Acts 3:8 “.. walking and leaping and praising God”. For ever. Amen!
For those who have to deal with the practical aspects that I leave behind I will try to make it a bit easier for you by expressing my wishes here so that I can change them if I change my mind.
Cremation or burial? It doesn’t matter to me – my body is no longer me, so cremation is fine.
Here are the songs I would like at any potential services.
Crematorium:
Great is Thy faithfulness
I will sing the Wondrous Story
