Do you love them or hate them? Do you hate to see the years taking their toll or do you delight in your survival? I have never worried about anyone knowing my age. I am 70 and rapidly approaching 71. With age comes the added certainty of death, though that can happen at any age. As a child I was very worried about the thought of death, when I was three a little girl who lived near me and was two, died after an accident. As I have grown older I have been less worried about death and most older people will say the same. How strange is that? Dying tends to bother us rather than being dead. I believe Jesus will take me to live with Him, what could be more wonderful. I think dying might be something like being born. The birth process is a traumatic time for the baby. So there is trepidation that dying might be the same. When a baby is born it soon knows the comfort of its mother's arms, when the believer dies he enters into the joy of His Lord.
When we lose a loved one it is natural to wonder how they are faring in the next life. I would warn against going to a medium to find out. At worst these people are charlatans after your money, the rest misguided or worse. We are told in the Bible not to try to reach the dead. The best person to call on in this situation is Jesus. That's right, go to the top. He is always available through prayer and doesn't make a charge. All he requires is that you look for him with all your heart. He has the answers to all of life's difficult questions.
