Hello everyone, I am wondering what to do about a relationship and a i felt this was a safe place. I have dated a man i went to high school with since january. He has a history of drug abuse gotten himself back in trouble in jail. Has had a revoke license for 10 years, now became abusive and I had to call his parole officer today and have him removed from my home. Part of me feels guilty and upset, as well as lonely and ashamed. I am not sure what to do say or where to start picking up the pieces.
|Sat, 10-01-2011 - 2:32pm
I can't tell you how to feel, I certainly understand some of your feeling, but I just remember he knew his situation when he decided to get abusive.
|Sat, 10-01-2011 - 2:50pm
thank you for your response, I am devastated, just completely upset, I gave him everything I could to help but not enable him. I don't understand. I know it was the right thing. What set it off is has been taking this suboxone crap which makes him bi polar. then he mixed something with that and took my motorcyle illegally till 3:30 am. No apology he told me to get over it. UGH why do I care??
|Sat, 10-01-2011 - 3:38pm
thank you for all your positive words, I have been up all night, this kind of hit me like a strong wind out of nowhere. I hope everything with your situation works as well. Not many men post here
|Sat, 10-01-2011 - 6:12pm
thank you, but didn't you go through this grief when you separated? I suppose it's normal. What you are saying is very encouraging, I hate to hear others go through this but at the same time I hate being alone in it all.
|Sun, 10-02-2011 - 2:33pm
Yes, in many ways i am relieved. I teach and coach, and the stress from that and him it's one less thing to worry about. He did contribute financially to the household bills, so for a bit I am going to be tight with cash. But other than the "man jobs" like the roof etc. I am perfectly capable of handling. All minscule stuff compared to a better life without the "bum" just a shocker in many ways as he was doing so well staying clean for so long and it seemed he was becoming more than just a bum. He never cheated, but yeah idiot get your license back, and get off the crap! You would think people want more for themselves. I thought he did which was what kept me there. Yeah dumb i see that.

Lithium-manganese Batteries In EVs Much Safer Than Dreamliner Chemistry
Boeing's (NYSE:BA) Dreamliner battery woes are casting a dark shadow on the electric car industry's reliance on lithium batteries. The safety of lithium-based batteries has been routinely called into question by critics who believe the widespread adoption of the electric car is a Jetsonian fantasy whose time will never come.
Some of those critics have further railed against the use of lithium batteries in electric and hybrid vehicles using the revelation that lithium-cobalt oxide, the type of lithium cell chemistry used in the 787 Dreamliner, is also used in the Tesla Roadster and Model S automobiles. However, most electric car manufacturers have opted to use batteries based on lithium-manganese oxide, and to a lesser degree, lithium-nickel-manganese-cobalt oxide and lithium-iron-phosphate chemistries, as laboratory testing shows these are the safest in high-temperature applications. Lithium-manganese batteries may have lower energy density, but compared to lithium-cobalt batteries, they last longer and hold up better when damaged.
Six most common lithium battery typesThe most common types of lithium-ion batteries include those mentioned above as well as lithium-nickel-cobalt-aluminum oxide and lithium titanate. Lithium-cobalt oxide Lithium-cobalt batteries consist of a cobalt-oxide cathode and a graphite-carbon anode. They are widely used in portable electronics such as laptops, cell phones and digital cameras due to their high specific energy capacity. However, the lithium-cobalt combination has poor thermal stability. When damaged, overcharging or operating at temperatures over 130ºC, lithium-cobalt batteries are susceptible to thermal runaway — meaning an increase in temperature causes a reaction that further increases temperatures and eventually causes a fire; that is what experts believe occurred aboard two of Boeing's Dreamliners last month. The fleet of planes, heralded as the "the most electric ... ever to fly," use 63-pound lithium-cobalt batteries as a backup power source for several systems.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

to all those of Welsh origin. Happy St David's Day :)
Diolch a lot.
Leek soup tonight, followed by braised leeks with leek.
Welsh Cakes for the meeting later.... in honour of my Welsh colleague.
I shall be making Welsh Cakes later... it's a family tradition I can't give up :)
They sell them in Waitrose now... ridiculous price for something that's so easy to make!
Every recipe is different. Mine doesn't include spice. My Mum reckons there are as many recipes for Welsh cakes as there are recipes for "spag bol".
Merry St David's Day :D
Some ideas for a St David's Day Menu:
Welsh cuisine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Beverages section says beer is our national drink! :drunken_smilie:
Mmmm, laverbread :p
I've been busy :)
My recipe (as handed down through the Davies/Edwards ancestry):
8oz (200g) Self Raising Flour
4oz (100g) Butter/margarine (Not diet marg... flora is fine, but not flora light)
3oz (150g) Sugar
4oz (200g) Mixed dried fruit
1 Medium Egg
Griddle or heavy bottomed frying pan - standard frying pan won't cook evenly. My griddle is genuine ½" power station boiler plate!
Rub fat into flour. Stir in fruit and sugar. Bind mix with egg to form soft dough (add a little milk if necessary)
Roll out to ¼" (just over ½cm) thick and cut into large circles.
Pre-heat a griddle and wipe with a little flavourless oil (sunflower is fine) or butter/marg
Cook Welsh cake for roughly 1 minute each side until lightly browned
'Loose a day with Brains SA' :cool:
Laverbread......fried in bacon fat......on toast......to die for.

Lenovo Unveils Its First Multimode Yoga Tablet
Multimode computing leader Lenovo (SEHK:0992) (Pink Sheets:LNVGY) today debuted its first multimode Yoga Tablet at a livestream launch event with Ashton Kutcher, the company's newest product engineer. Known for pioneering innovative multimode devices like the Yoga convertible laptop, Lenovo now brings people a new way to get the most out of their tablet experience.
The game-changing Yoga Tablet features three unique modes, giving consumers a better way to use a tablet. With hold, tilt and stand modes, the tablet adapts to the way people use it instead of forcing people to adapt to the technology. Additionally the Yoga Tablet has an amazing up to 18 hours of battery life 1 to truly fit users' ultra mobile lifestyles.
"Watching and discovering that people frequently use tablets in three main ways allowed us to break the mold on the current 'sea of sameness' designs, giving them a better way to read, browse, watch and interact with content," said Liu Jun, senior vice president and president, Lenovo Business Group, Lenovo. "As consumers' continue to demand innovative multimode designs we're thrilled to have Ashton Kutcher on board with us to help further develop the immersive and complementary hardware and rich content experience."
Yoga Tablet: Three Modes And Longer Battery Life Give Tablets A Better WayOne size does not fit all, especially when it comes to tablets. Lenovo designers and engineers identified three challenges tablet users face: fatigue when holding and using the tablet; no self-supporting mechanism when laid on a flat surface; and an inadequate viewing angle when set on a table. These scenarios inspired Lenovo to break the mold on the "sea of sameness" design and to create Yoga Tablet's unique modes. With its exclusive cylindrical handle, hold mode is designed to fit an individual's hand, so the Yoga Tablet is easier to hold and offers more control over the device whereas other tablets require two hands. Hold mode makes reading, checking social media and browsing the web easy and parallels how people hold magazines when reading. To convert the Yoga Tablet into stand mode, simply rotate the side cylinder 90° so that the tablet stand deploys, allowing the tablet to stand by itself on a desk or table. Users can change the viewing angle to fit what's comfortable for them from 110° to 135°. Stand mode makes it easy for users to comfortably watch movies, place video calls and interact with the ten-finger touchscreen without having to rely on add-on accessories. Users can lay the Yoga Tablet down in tilt mode to type directly on the tablet, play games and just surf the Internet with a better viewing angle. To further enhance the rich content and multimode tablet experience, users can enable the tablet's auto-detection software that automatically brings up frequently used apps in hold and stand modes. The Yoga Tablet's multimode design not only provides a better usability experience, it offers dramatically longer battery life of up to 18 hours 1, which is significantly more than the amount of typical tablets. Its cylindrical handle packs in powerful, dual batteries and unlike most tablets, it uses batteries typically found in laptops. The Yoga Tablet can even charge other devices such as smartphones via its USB on-the-go 2. The 10 inch and 8 inch models run on MT8125 for WiFi models and MT8389 Quad Core processors for 3G models with 16 or 32 GB capacity and feature Android 4.2. Also equipped with Dolby® audio, Yoga Tablet's front-facing speakers create a powerful surround sound experience through the device speakers and with headphones. Extremely mobile, both models are featherweights weighing in at 1.35 lbs for the 10-in model and 0.88 lbs for the 8-in model. They feature high definition 1280 x 800 displays, a 5 MP auto focus rear camera plus an additional front camera, a micro SD expansion slot, allowing up to 64 GB of total storage, WiFi and optional 3G in select countries and a micro USB connection and Dolby DS1 for rich audio. Lenovo offers an optional Bluetooth keyboard for the 10-in model that functions as a cover and even wakes up the tablet when it's removed and puts the tablet to sleep when it's attached. Users can also opt for a WD100 dongle in select countries to stream video content from the tablet wirelessly to a TV. Lenovo also offers a portfolio of services solutions for the Yoga Tablet including warranty extensions, upgrades and premium technical support.

Midwest Digital & Social Committee
Digital media has become a part of consumer's daily lives and they have become accustomed to viewing content and connecting with people wherever and whenever they want. Social media, mobile marketing and viral videos have especially exploded in the last few years. Despite this rapid growth, clients have many questions and their issues include measurement, agency selection, internal org structure, and relinquishing control to the consumer while trying to influence the dialogue.
The Midwest Digital & Social Committee is for members who lead digital, social, and/or mobile marketing and/or initiatives at their organizations. We will drive industry thought leadership, share best practices and expertise, and facilitate discussion and topics to inform better decision making. The committee will provide a forum for members to elevate themselves and their respective organizations via interaction with their peers as well as an outside perspective from invited guests.
The Midwest Digital & Social Committee, based in the Chicago area, is the "sister" committee of the Digital Marketing, Social Media, and Mobile Marketing Committees.
This committee helps program the annual ANA Digital & Social Media Conference, next planned for July 15-17, 2015 at Terranea, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA. Click here for the 2014 agenda.
Committee Chair: Stevie Benjamin, Senior Director, Digital & Media, MillerCoors LLC
Discussion Topics
- Measurement and ROI
- Internal Organizational Structure
- Interactive Television
- Different Roles of Social Media including Customer Service, Brand/Product Awareness, Fundraising, Legal/Human Resources, etc.
- Best Practices on Managing Media Agency Selection and Ongoing Relationships
- Privacy and Security Issues
- Location-Based Programs
- User-Generated Content
- Mobile Shopping and Payment Innovations
- Gaming
Leadership Initiatives
Media Buying's Evolution Challenges Marketers
The rise of digital media and the increasing use of new, automated, impression-by-impression platforms for planning, buying, and measuring all forms of media have upended traditional marketing and media buying processes. ANA teamed with Forrester Research to better understand how marketers in charge of important media budgets are coping with this evolution. The research focuses on media transparency, programmatic buying, and metrics.
Optimizing Integrated Multi-Screen Campaigns Survey
This survey was conducted by ANA in partnership with Nielsen. Integrated multi-screen campaigns are defined as campaigns that have the same set of marketing objectives and run during a similar timeframe across two or more screens, including TV, computer, tablet, mobile phone, and digital place-based media. The objectives of this survey included assessing the importance of integrated multi-screen campaigns, evaluating the metrics used to measure their success, examining the attributes that can lead to increased spend on multi-screen campaigns, ascertaining the importance of the different screen types, and determining the ad formats best suited for integrated multi-screen advertising.
Agency Trading Desks White Paper
November, 2011, ANA released a white paper on Agency Trading Desks will help educate marketers about this emerging audience purchasing model.

Stream Video From Your Hard Drive With Pogoplug Video
Now that tools for shooting and editing video are relatively simple and inexpensive, many of us use video extensively in our work for demonstrations, training and marketing. Pogoplug Video, announced today at CES, will allow you to make your videos available more easily.
The device will stream your HD video and images from your own external hard drive directly to multiple desktops and laptops, as well as to iPhones, iPads, Android, and other Internet-connected mobile devices. Video will also stream to UPnP Internet-connected TVs or set-top boxes.
According to the manufacturer, Cloud Engines, Pogoplug Video will stream media from many camcorders, video cameras and mobile phones, and users will be able to view files without the need to convert formats, or to upload files to a website like YouTube or Vimeo. The device will automatically stream video at the highest quality possible, and will support multiple streaming protocols. Pogoplug Video will be optimized to work with Sony's AVCHD camera products.
Pogoplug Video will be the newest member of the Pogoplug device family, which we've talked about before. I haven't had a chance to try it yet, but it appears to have a very similar form factor to the previous versions. As with the other Pogoplugs, the new version will include an Ethernet port for connecting to a network, four USB ports to connect multiple hard drives, and a power connector.Pogoplug Video will retail for $199, and will be available for pre-order on March 1 from the device's website. It will be available online and at retailers starting in April. How do you use video in your work? Is a device like the Pogoplug Video something you'd like to use?

2) The following are my some question.
a) What is the different btw "required_hits" in /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf and /home/pehpehang/.spamassassin/user_prefs? Am i write to say that if i set "required_hits 4 " in /home/pehpehang/.spamassassin/user_prefs, pehpehang email account will follow "required_hits 4" instead of "required_hits 5" in /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf ?
b) I do not know why i receive a lot of email like "failure notice", "Undelivery mail return" and etc.... It is very funny because that email account we do not use it yet i receive a lot of this kind of email. The following is sample of "failure notice" email. I think someone is use our email illegally. Pls advice how to solve this problem.

Auditors said the Energy Department may repeat missteps that led to cost and schedule overruns in an initiative to eliminate weapon-grade plutonium.
Officials used an "immature design" to establish a 2007 "baseline" plan for a new facility to convert the plutonium into mixed-oxide reactor fuel, the Energy Department's inspector general said in a new report. Gregory Friedman and his audit team said the move led to inappropriately optimistic predictions on construction costs and employee turnover. Ultimately, ramifications included three years of delays and nearly $3 billion in unexpected costs for the project at South Carolina's Savannah River Site.
"We remain concerned with the project management issues observed during the audit," Friedman said in the May 22 assessment.
He said the problems found by his office's investigation and by similar probes are "applicable to the future direction of the MOX Facility and other large department construction projects." Previously, the Army Corps of Engineers determined that the MOX plant would cost $30 billion to build and maintain.
The Energy Department earlier this year announced plans to mothball the MOX facility, due to rising costs and schedule delays. The department's semiautonomous National Nuclear Security Administration is still evaluating options for disposing of the 34 metric tons of excess U.S. weapons-grade plutonium, as required under a nonproliferation deal with Russia.
"This assessment and [an] associated independent review are expected to be completed in the next 12 to 18 months," according to the inspector general's report. "We are hopeful that the audit results can help to inform the current project reassessment."

It has been recently revealed in a report that there has been the launch of a new cancer cell line Encyclopedia by the drug firm Novartis, and the Broad Institute. This is going to be a very effective new guide for research and development. It has covered about 1,000 most prevalent types of cancer cell lines in humans and has detailed reviews and drug treatments give out about the same.
This made with a lot of hard work from the scientists involved. They have put in a lot of effort towards, of research in the same. The aim of making the book is to facilitate in further reference and research. This shall be able to help doctors, treat their patients better in the time to come. It might be definitely helpful in solving the queries of medical experts in the time to come.
"Cancer is a genetic disease. Cell lines reflect the genetic disturbances that drive cancers. Probing cell lines with medicines targeted at specific pathways, as done for the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia, provides a powerful tool for design of cancer treatment", said Mark Fishman, President of the Novartis Institutes for BioMedical Research (NIBR).
This book shall facilitate understanding each patient better in the time to come, and treat their cases individually; not having to go by what has been one in the majority of cases.
It shall increase the scope for novel development of treatments to fight various types of cancers in the near future. It remains to be seen how beneficial it is going to be for the cancer suffers in the time to come, and mow many lives it might be able to save with the help of the extensive research and development put into the book.

NiSource's CEO Discusses Q4 2011 Results - Earnings Call Transcript
In 2011, those capital investments exceeded $1.1 billion. In a few moments, I'll provide a high-level overview of our $1.4 billion 2012 capital program. This record-high program is a testament to our deep inventory of investment opportunities across each of our core business units and our solid financial foundation. I would suggest that the primary takeaway for 2011 is that the NiSource team has once again demonstrated its commitment, focus and solid execution, which has positioned us to step up our game a notch or 2 in 2012 as we continue to create value for our customers, investors and other key stakeholders.
With that backdrop, let's now take a closer look at our 2011 results, starting with our financial highlights on Slide 4.
As you can see, we delivered 2011 net operating earnings non-GAAP of about $378 million or $1.35 per share, compared to $1.22 per share in 2010. And our operating earnings for the year increased from about $915 million in 2010 to over $961 million. As I suggested earlier, these results reflect the core strength of our business plan, the focus of our team as well as continued signs of resilience in some of our key markets.
On a GAAP basis, our net operating earnings per share for the year were $1.08. As noted on Schedules 1 and 2 to our earnings release, the most significant GAAP to non-GAAP reconciling item was the $54 million call premium on our successful $250 million debt tender offer, which was completed in the fourth quarter.Turning to our individual business unit results, let's start in Indiana with our electric business as summarized on Slide 5. For the year, NIPSCO electric reported operating earnings of $203 million compared to $217 million in 2010. Revenues were down about $0.5 million primarily due to decreased residential and commercial margins and lower environmental cost recovery. Operating expenses were up about $13 million primarily due to higher employee and administrative expenses and outside service costs. By far, the most significant highlight for the year was the settlement of NIPSCO's landmark electric rate case and the approval of that settlement by the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission, or IURC, in December.

Albany Law School and the New York State Bar Association (NYSBA) Health Law Section's Telehealth and Telemedicine Workgroup are launching an E-Health Internship Program to help accelerate the adoption of technology by health care providers and agencies.
Starting this summer, three Albany Law School students will research state and federal laws and regulations related to telehealth and telemedicine, as well as relevant malpractice cases and the privacy and security implications of using new technology. The student's work will culminate in a white paper and a conference to be held during the fall semester.
"The health care industry has been slow to embrace many of the technologies that can offer cost savings and quality improvements to patient care," said Alicia Ouellette, Albany Law School's Associate Dean for Academic Affairs and Intellectual Life. "This hesitance is in large part due to a legal and regulatory framework that makes it difficult to shift away from incumbent systems. We hope to help change the status quo."
The first three Albany Law
School students to participate in the E-Health Internship Program will
be: Courtney Alpert '15, Rebecca Cerny '16 and Brent Frary '16.
is a wonderful opportunity for us not only to learn a great deal about
health care law and technology, but also to make a significant impact on
how doctors and other health care providers can treat their patients,"
said Alpert, a Newton, Mass., native who will begin her third and final
year at Albany Law in the fall.
The NYSBA
Health Law Section's Telehealth and Telemedicine Workgroup (a part of
the work plan of the section's E-Health & Information Systems
Committee) intends to continue offering the internship program,
selecting new areas for the students to work on as the e-health
landscape evolves.

The huge variety of orthodontic wires brands available in market might generate confusion as regard to the best choice for clinical application. Therefore mechanical properties knowledge about wires would help the professional to apply the best orthodontic technique depending on the treatment phase. The wires manufacturing evolution and the new orthodontic techniques proposed guided the market into the search for better quality alloys, in order to make them biologically more effective to teeth and support tissues. This paper aims to summarize some main characteristics of orthodontic wires related to their history, mechanical properties and clinical application as regard to individual phase of treatment.

After the panel she said that the newest NBC employees are in good hands at her old show: "The lessons I've learned in how to write, perform in an ensemble, be a part of a group and have that sort of a family mentality is something that I feel very fortunate that I got to experience and take with me." She also praised "SNL" mastermind Lorne Michaels. "He's incredibly smart, he changed my life. Wiig said. "He's just an incredible man." Check out some pictures in our photo gallery!

Saving Europe From Collapse
The following commentary comes from an independent investor or market observer as part of TheStreet's guest contributor program, which is separate from the company's news coverage.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Governments may soon fall in France and Holland, and are quickly losing legitimacy elsewhere in Europe, because austerity programs and a common currency risk throwing the continent into an endless recession.
Europe's infamous labor laws, which make layoffs expensive and businesses reluctant to invest, have long impeded investment and productivity growth.
During the expansion of the 2000s, the competitive core -- Germany, other northern economies and important parts of France -- coped better and accomplished stronger productivity. Consequently, the euro became undervalued for those economies and overvalued for Mediterranean economies -- specifically, goods made in the north became bargain priced and those made in Club Med states too expensive.10 Stocks That Won't Leave You High and Dry >> Southern economies suffered large trade deficits with the north and insufficient demand for what they make. Governments in Italy, Greece and Portugal borrowed feverishly to keep folks employed, finance early retirements, and provide inexpensive health care.
Even as northern Europe and the U.S. recovered, the sovereign debt carried by those governments alarmed investors and interest rates soared. Each was forced to accept bailouts from more solvent European governments, led by Germany, on the condition they accept draconian austerity and pledge allegiance to the common currency. Certainly, Mediterranean states must trim government spending and reform labor markets, but to pay back what they owe, they must earn euros by growing their economies and exporting more than they import. Together, those require more gradual reductions in government spending and abandoning the euro; or their economies will endure years of high unemployment to push down wages and prices and make their economies competitive with the north. Enron 10 Years After -- From Bad to Worse >> In the end, all this will not be enough and endless recession will result, as new investments dry up and existing capital -- both machines and workers' skills -- atrophy or leave. The collapse of the south is now threatening the vitality of the north, as Germany, Holland and others may fall into recession without customers further south for what they make.

The best way for a man rightly to enjoy himself, is to maintain a
universal, ready, and cheerful compliance with the divine and uncreated
Will in all things; as knowing that nothing can issue and flow forth from
the fountain of goodness but that which is good; and therefore a good man
is never offended with any piece of divine dispensation, nor hath he any
reluctancy against that Will that dictates and determines all things by
an eternal rule of goodness; as knowing that there is an unbounded and
almighty Love that, without any disdain or envy, freely communicates itself
to everything He made; that always enfolds those in His everlasting arms
who are made partakers of His own image, perpetually nourishing and
cherishing them with the fresh and vital influences of His grace.
Giving God the Highest Praise.

promises may evermore be filled from Thy abundance. Amen.
"May the Lord lead your hearts into a full understanding and expression of the love of God and the patient endurance that comes from Christ." II Thessalonians 3:5 (NLT)
THOUGHT: Because of our need to be loved and the shortage of the kind of love we so desperately need, we often lead our hearts in places that will never bring real satisfaction. We try to find what our heart needs but we are like the song that says we are "looking for love in all the wrong places." Instead, Paul suggests that we let the Lord lead our heart. When we trust God with our heart, He will lead us where we will find everything we need for lasting joy and peace. That is why Paul is praying that God will lead our heart into a full understanding of the love of God. Can you imagine that? Can you imagine how our life would change if we really understood how much God loved us? Paul did. He is praying that God would lead our hearts into a full understanding of the love of God that results in a full "expression" of His love and the patient endurance that comes from trusting in that love. Do we want to live a life of love? Do we want to have the peace that comes from patient endurance? If so, we need to pray with Paul that God will lead our heart into a full understanding of His love for us.
PRAYER : Father, lead my heart today to a better understanding of how much You love me. I pray that my life will exemplify Your love and the patient endurance that comes from being secure in You. AMEN
When Death Becomes Birth
by Max Lucado
You live one final breath from your own funeral.
Which, from God's perspective, is nothing to grieve. He responds to these grave facts with this great news: "The day you die is better than the day you are born" (Eccles. 7:1). Now there is a twist. Heaven enjoys a maternity-ward reaction to funerals. Angels watch body burials the same way grandparents monitor delivery-room doors. "He'll be coming through any minute!" They can't wait to see the new arrival. While we're driving hearses and wearing black, they're hanging pink and blue streamers and passing out cigars. We don't grieve when babies enter the world. The hosts of heaven don't weep when we leave it.
Oh, but many of us weep at the thought of death. Do you? Do you dread your death? And is your dread of death robbing your joy of life?
Jesus came to "deliver those who have lived all their lives as slaves to the fear of dying" (Heb. 2:15).
Your death may surprise you and sadden others, but heaven knows no untimely death: "You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed" (Ps. 139:16).
Dread of death ends when you know heaven is your true home. In all my air travels I've never seen one passenger weep when the plane landed. Never. No one clings to the armrests and begs, "Don't make me leave. Don't make me leave. Let me stay and eat more peanuts." We're willing to exit because the plane has no permanent mailing address. Nor does this world. "But we are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives. And we are eagerly waiting for him to return as our Savior" (Phil. 3:20).
Why don't you do this: give God your death. Imagine your last breath, envision your final minutes, and offer them to him. Deliberately. Regularly. "Lord, I receive your work on the cross and in your resurrection. I entrust you with my departure from earth." With Christ as your friend and heaven as your home, the day of death becomes sweeter than the day of birth.
