The life and trials of a growing Christian-Day Twenty

I have heard a lot of Christians, both young and old say "I'm not afraid of death or dieing, because I know where I'm going." I've heard sermons that ask "Do you know, without a doubt, that you are going to be with the Lord when you die?" The truth is, I am scared of dieing. I think we all are, no matter how close to or far from God we claim be. Even those who appear to have the strongest faith, are weak at times whether they are willing to admit it, or not. Sickness or severe injury are traumatic things and I guess it's natural to waver or question your faith a little. I am sure, right now, that I'm going to be with the Lord when my time comes, but every now and then, I wonder. The bible promises that all who put their faith in Jesus and are baptized will spend eternity in heaven with the Lord. I guess I'll just have to pray for more faith.
