God Told Craig, He Was Going Home To Heaven... A Month Ago

Learned already that Grief comes and goes in waves. Woke up at 430 am, dreaming about being with my sister and somehow in there, the reality of Craig passing away. Waking up, as the wave hits again. He really isn't here. Wiping tears from my own face is a big challenge. Always scared to start crying because I won't stop. I rang my call bell, got my chair unplugged and opened my YouTube channel. I forgot about what Craig tried to tell me a month ago he was leaving. If you watch the video below, imagine me saying as I watched it this morning, "Anita, shut Up!" It was clear that my dear husband was slowly being prepared to leave.  As I watched, I seemed to be desperate to make him stay if I could. Definitely feeling selfish as I heard myself. As you can see and hear He was in distress yet never complained or showed anything negative. No doubt, he was ready to to go Home.

No more pain...Home with the LORD at last!

[Rev 21:4-7 NLT] 4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever." 5 And the one sitting on the throne said, "Look, I am making everything new!" And then he said to me, "Write this down, for what I tell you is trustworthy and true." 6 And he also said, "It is finished! I am the Alpha and the Omega--the Beginning and the End. To all who are thirsty I will give freely from the springs of the water of life. 7 All who are victorious will inherit all these blessings, and I will be their God, and they will be my children.

[1Co 15:52-58 NLT] 52 It will happen in a moment, in the blink of an eye, when the last trumpet is blown. For when the trumpet sounds, those who have died will be raised to live forever. And we who are living will also be transformed. 53 For our dying bodies must be transformed into bodies that will never die; our mortal bodies must be transformed into immortal bodies. 54 Then, when our dying bodies have been transformed into bodies that will never die, this Scripture will be fulfilled: "Death is swallowed up in victory. 55 O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?" 56 For sin is the sting that results in death, and the law gives sin its power. 57 But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless.
