Are you afraid to die?

When celebrities die, we are reminded that each of us has an appointment to keep -- an appointment with death. But if you have ever felt a sense of dread when it comes to dying, you are not alone -- you are a normal human being with a God-given will to live.


The reason we are here in this physical world is for soul growth. This physical world is the ideal place for this. Spiritual growth in the spirit realms is more difficult. The reason is that the influence of our physical bodies gives us the opportunity for a full range of love (a child's love, marital love, and parental love) which is ideally available here. Love that is misused or misdirected is best corrected in the here. In this physical world, there is the full range of physical and spiritual senses with which to act and communicate.

Edgar Cayce said, "dying is like walking through a door way, it's that fast".  Those who have experienced near death accounts will state your "afterlife" is the real life you're use to.  This life is nothing more than a blink of an eye.  So many who've experience NDE's have talked how beautiful and wonderful beyond words what lays await for each of us.  Most who have had NDE's say they fought off depression upon returning to their current life.  
Cayce was a wonder to the medical community because of his ability to diagnose and specify a treatment for gravely ill people often hundreds of miles away through his out-of-body journeys. Cayce was able to gain a tremendous amount of information through his frequent NDEs. Much of this information solved some of the greatest mysteries of humanity.

From the smallest to the greatest, from the richest to the poorest, everyone eventually dies. But what happens after death? Can you know for sure?  

Benjamin Franklin wrote in a personal letter, “…in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes!” Every minute on earth, 108 people die. Ultimately, everyone dies. It is not a matter of if, but when.

Sadly, and due to a wide variety of reasons and circumstances, some seek death, considering it the only solution. Others try to delay the inevitable through good health. Still others tragically lose their lives through time and chance. Sometimes disease or other illnesses bring a death sentence, leaving a person with nothing to do but wait for the end.

Many view the end of their lives with uneasiness. They ponder, “What’s next?”—“Will I live again?”—“Is this it?”—“Will I ever see my loved ones again?”—“Where am I going after this life?”

In contrast, others view death with fear of the unknown. Some fear the process and the suffering that may accompany death. Others, racked with guilt, have a different type of fear—fear that they will burn forever in “hell fire.”

Whatever the viewpoint, feelings or circumstances of one’s life—ultimately, life ends. Because of this unavoidable reality, every person at some point in his or her life thinks about the subject of death.

What about you? Have you ever considered where you are heading? Some live fast-paced lives, never stopping to consider such a large question.

On the other hand, most who are religious—including adherents of traditional Christianity—think they know what happens when one dies. Yet they may be surprised to learn that religions of this world have deceived them about what occurs at death.

Being afraid is always the worst part of anything. The test you must take all that worry but after the test you say that really wasn't that bad. Your drivers test you worried about taking, you find out that wasn't bad at all. The worry before is always the worst of anything you have to do.I think when i die and maybe you will also when you meet God we might say thank God that part is over.
