Deathly Afraid

[MoonRock Dragon]

Well I have been feeling good for about 2 months now but I find myself in dark thoughts which I cannot control.I have a phobia called Thanotophobia/Necrophobia which is the fear of death and corpses.It hit me hard about 2 weeks ago well I finally releised that I was doomed (going to die) and cannot change it.I do find it hard to beleve in heaven since when you die you loose all your senses and cannot think or do anything.I sometimes hope I will die in a freak accident in 70yrs time so I will not die slowly and loose my senses slowly and get near a death exprience.Like if I die on a bed on earth I want to awaken on a bed in heaven.Sci have change my views on alot of things and I hate the idea of my body rotting or being burnt.I saw the world trade center the movie and in the movie they show a near death experince with white lights and jesus in a ghostly form with a blood red heart.I do feel that I am helpless and since nobody can stop death that will mean that my parent's cannot protect me from it.Really I do hope that if I die on a bed or a car crash or at a party I will WAKE UP IN HEAVEN IN THE EXACT SITUATION THAT I DIED IN SO IT WILL BE LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED.

Well, I'd say continue to do what you think best while you're alive. Death is a fact of life and nobody really knows for certain what if anything happens afterward. I don't really know what to say, but I am still thinking about you. Everything on this earth will eventually go away. I don't know if there is anything eternal, but I will always search for it as long as I can.

MoonRock Dragon,
You don't have to be afraid of death. Especially if you know where you are going. If you've accepted Him into your heart, then your His now. You don't have to worry anymore, because your life is in His hands. Read 1st Peter 7-11.

U have my prayers...

Exactly.

Father, please give MoonRockDragon peace. Please shower him with you love and blessings and show him that in You death is merely stepping through a door to heaven. Thank you for loving him and never leaving him. In Your name.
