[STK-Revolution] chamio's home [#86]

Bishop TD Jakes reached out to me today and spoke healing and closure....
Then I went online and came across this powerful word he spoke at a recent funeral and the word was "I know it feels like death has won"....
I flipped a few words so that it felt more personal to what were all going through right now in this moment and I just wanted to share this.....
So that we all get a since of closure around Paul's transition and or whoever else you may have lost this is a powerful word....
Embrace....

BISHOP TD JAKES: In moments like this, it feels -- it feels like death has won.
But the bible says that love is stronger than death.
Your hearts are heavy, tears flow down.
Your spirits are wounded.
I feel that too.
I didn't have the privilege of knowing him as long as many of you have done.
I understand what it is to be in pain.
You look around and everybody you love and everybody you can count on and everybody you can trust seems to be slipping through your fingers.
And it feels as though death has won.
The first family, when Cain killed able, it seemed like death had won.
Noah escaped the flood. Still he died. It looked like death had won.

Isaiah was an eagle-eye prophet, he could see thousands of miles and years away.
Still he died. It looked like death had won.
Habaka had come as a prophet to Israel, spoke truth so powerful and so profound, but no matter how close he was to God, still he died.
It looked like death had won.
We've seen scientists and astronauts and politicians and great thinkers of the ages and no matter how profound and prolific or bright they were, still they died.
It looked like death had won.
But the bible kept saying that love is stronger than death.
And like two gladiators in a fight.
Every time they enter into the ring it looks like death has won...
Love rolled into the ring and said wait a minute, death.
You've been bullying people for a long time.
But I want to set the record straight.
Love is greater than death.
But early Sunday morning, love rolled up his sleeves and said wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
Snatched great death and took the sting out of death and the victory out the grave.
I want you to understand in a very practical and pragmatic way that death has NOT won.
