Let me, invite you, this morning to turn in your Bibles to Genesis chapter 23. Genesis 23 for a time of study in the word this morning. Solomon, once wrote, It is better to go to a funeral than to a party. For death is the destiny of every man, and those who are living should take this reality to heart.
And so the good news is we're going to a funeral today. Here in Genesis chapter 23. And if you want to give a title to the message this morning, it would be a believing husband buries his wife. A believing husband buries his wife.
Couple of weeks ago, I got a text from my daughter, Brianna, who is now living in Tucson. And this was the text that she sent me. She said, you're doing OK today? I had a horrible dream about you last night.
So after carefully pondering her text to me, I replied with this text, I'm by the side of a desert road in a ditch. With 2, with 2 broken legs, I'm trapped in the car. I have no more water to drink and a mountain lion is sniffing around me. Tell the family I love them and thanks for checking in....
