A sick man turned to his doctor, as he was leaving the room after
paying a visit, and said, "Doctor, I am afraid to die. Tell me what lies on
the other side."
Very quietly the doctor said, "I don't know."
"You don't know? You, a Christian man, do not know what is on the
other side?"
The doctor was holding the handle of the door, on the other side of
which came a sound of scratching and whining, and as he opened the door
a dog sprang into the room and leaped on him with an eager show of
gladness.
Turning to the patient, the doctor said, "Did you notice that dog? He
had never been in this room before. He did not know what was inside.
He knew nothing except that his master was here, and when the door
opened he sprang in without fear.
I know little of what is on the other side of death, but I do know one
thing: I know my Master is there, and that is enough. And when the
door opens, I shall pass through with no fear, but with gladness.
"Lord Jesus Christ, fill me with the power of your Holy Spirit and
let me grow in the knowledge of your love and truth. Let your Spirit
be aflame in my heart that I may know and love you more fervently
and strive to do your will in all things."
