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!

The Glory God Deserves
Stop and think about how stupid it is for anyone not to live life trying to please God. Yes, though Jesus Christ is the only way to be saved, the Creator made man in His image to bring pleasure to Himself. The unselfish God of love provided man a wealth of resources for his pleasure too. Saved though I may be, I still have a responsibility to please the God who created me, forgave me, and saved me from the depths of Hell when I was powerless to save myself. I hope the sinner and saint alike commit their lives to walking in the light of God's word. For living right honors God, and gives Him the glory He deserves.
