When we lose someone we love, we might rage, “It was too early” or “They didn’t deserve this.” But another way to think about it is that God is taking the good people back.
They were given the same opportunities as everyone else, but chose to use them well in the selfless service of others. They passed their test, so God took them back.
So now let their life be a source of inspiration worthy of emulation. Choose to live as they lived. Follow in their footsteps. Complete their legacy. Recognise that God loves those who do good.
