Psalm 16:11: You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
Experiencing Jesus in the Psalms
Death posed no threat to David because he enjoyed great blessing and fellowship with the Lord. God would not permit death and the grave to interrupt that marvelous fellowship. So in a fuller sense this is true of believers today, who having the full revelation about the doctrine of resurrection, can say that even when they die, God will not let death destroy that full fellowship they enjoy with the Lord. This expression of faith is possible because Christ conquered death and rose to become the firstfruits of all who sleep. 1
Living the Transformed Life
We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord. 2 Corinthians 5:8
- Look to Jesus and His Word to lead you on your daily journey.

- Look to Jesus and His Word to welcome you into your heavenly home forever.
When you look to Jesus, you stop looking to yourself. – TWEET IT
