God In Our Death and In Our Dying

The Heavenly Banquet

As we enter Allhallowtide Charlotte Elia offers a reflection on Romans 8:31-39.

"Our God chose death, destroyed death by occupying death. Our God chose that, chose that out of such a great love for us. God chose to die so that even the terrifying, unknown spaces between worlds would be filled with God’s love, and we’d never be alone, not for a moment, not for an instance. God in our death and in our dying. God ever and always with us."
