My mom sent this to me today. I had seen it a few
times before, and thought it might be nice to share with all of you tonight. It
is a rather comforting way to look at the journey from here to the other side
of death.
GOING
HOME TO THE MASTER
A
sick man turned to his doctor as he was preparing to leave the examination room
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're
a Christian man, and don't know what's on the other side?”
The doctor was holding
the handle of the door; on the other side 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 my dog? He's never been in this room before. He
didn't 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.”
