Lord Jesus Christ, who is the resurrection and the life, help us to live and trust in you, connected to you as you were connected to the Father, that death would have no sway over us and we would remain in your presence forever and ever, through you who sits enthroned on high with the Father and Holy Spirit in glory. Amen. ‘Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?”‘ – John 11:25-26
