Hope

Yesterday we celebrated with the saints already in heaven. Today we think about ourselves, and those who have gone before us in faith. Jesus came down from His Father, died for our sins, and rose again to give us hope of eternal life with Him. Grabbing that hope with both hands, we remember our relatives and friends who have died. We pray that they are with the saints in heaven, and above all pray that we will be able to live the life Jesus wants for us and so enjoy the same resurrection at the end of our lives.
