We are all dying. It is true of the sinner, as well as the saint. We must prepare for life after death. Writing these poems comforted me when I was mourning my brother, Bruce (October 20, 1953 - November 3, 2010). I wrote Poems For the Dying 1). to encourage Christians, 2). to comfort the bereaved, 3). to make those battling terminal illnesses less fearful, and 4). to be a soul winning tool. Death creates an unexpected, soul-gathering harvest opportunity. There is life after death. Joy!

Remember
Before you die, remember those who tried to teach you right from wrong. Remember those who tried to shelter you from harm. Remember the lies you told to hide your evil ways. Remember the days you spent doing as you pleased, ignoring the pleas of those who loved you, despite the choices that you made. Remember those who'll weep for you when you are laid to your place of eternal rest. Whether yours is eternal peace or eternal hell, whether or not you know Jesus will tell where you will spend eternity. I sincerely hope that you remember to call on Jesus before you die.
