Dying is Like Giving Birth

Dying is like giving birth. One does not know exactly when it will come or what one will have to go through to reach the end result. A person can experience pain and suffering in the dying process just like a woman who is giving birth. Once a baby is placed in the mother's arms the pain and suffering become a distant memory. I think that is how it must be when the dying are placed in the mothering arms of God, the process of getting there is quickly forgotten.
Heaven is God rejoicing at the child enfolded in God's eternal embrace and the child is at peace in God's love.
