Is the dread of death robbing your joy of life? It can.

This is Max Locato.

At the age of 37, Florence told her friends her life hung by a thread

and so she went to bed, and she stayed there for 53 years.

She did die at the age of 90.

Except for three years Florence cowered before the giant of death.

During those years, she made a name for herself,

not as one who suffered, but as a friend of those who did,

history's most famous nurse. Florence Nightingale lived as a slave of death. What about

you? Jesus came to deliver those who lived their lives as slaves to the fear of dying.

Death sits in his jurisdiction.

Psalm 13916 says, you saw me before I was

laid out before a single day had passed.
