HOPE

My mother was dead.

I buried her, of course, in the tiny plot of red Georgia clay that held my father, in the forgotten cemetery that had the audacity to call itself New Hope. The one thing I could cling to was that in death, finally, they had been reunited.

Tabby paused, her voice catching as she read, her long black minister’s robe fluttering in the wind.

For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep. For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.
