Where, O death is your victory? Where, O death is your sting? I Cor 15:55
Did you know that when a bumblebee stings you it leaves its stinger in you? A bumblebee without a stinger can't hurt you. But a bumblebee withouta stinger still looks like a bumble bee that CAN hurt you. So what do we do? We fight them off and run away as fast as we can.
When Paul asks, "Death where is your sting?" – I'm reminded of the bumblebee.Like the bumblebee, we know death hurts. If we could see death coming we'd fight it off, we'd run from it, we'd hide until it went away. But Jesus says to us ... 'don't be afraid because from the Cross I took all the sting, all the pain and all the blame for you and I carried the stinger back to our Father in heaven.'
Because of Christ, we are assured of eternal life with the Lord. When we've lived our lives to die in Christ, death for us, my friend,will have no sting!!
