We see a hearse we think sorrow. We see a grave we think despair. We hear of a death we think of a loss. Not so in heaven. When heaven sees a breathless body, it sees the vacated cocoon & the liberated butterfly.

I think there is, not in the sense that I enjoy it, but that it's an important question. It's the question, Does the presence of pain mean God doesn't care? Does God not love me anymore?
