My best friend recently passed away. But it is interesting how it happened. The past six months leading up to my friend death were very tough for him. He had lost his mother, and was grieving terribly. John had a disability too, which made things even harder for him. I would often pray for my friends blessing, that he would have a good future. It was during one of those times that God gave me a vision of John, and told me that he would soon pass away due to it being better for him in heaven. I did not believe it at first, and prayed "no God bless him here". But around a month latter my friend contracted a bug, and died from it. I can not help to be reminded of the scripture in Isaiah 57:1 "Good people pass away; the godly often die before their time. But no one seems to care or wonder why. No one seems to understand that God is protecting them from the evil to come.".

Thank you for that, I too have lost a dear friend, a sister in Christ who was so close to the Lord.
