No More Goodbyes

In No More Goodbyes, Alexis A. Goring tenderly reflects on the deep sorrow of loss and the eternal hope believers have in Jesus Christ. Drawing from Matthew 5:4, this devotional reminds us that while goodbyes are painful, they are never final for those who belong to Christ. One day, in Heaven, there will be no more tears, no more pain, and no more goodbyes—only joy in God’s presence and reunion with loved ones who have gone before us. Through Scripture and song, Alexis invites readers to rest in the comforting truth that death does not have the final word—Jesus does.

A few years ago, one of my author friends shared that the doctors told them it was time to say goodbye to their daughter because there was nothing else the hospital staff could do to revive her life. Reluctantly and with deep sorrow, they said their final goodbye to their young daughter who had died.

This sad story made me think of how there will come a time when we who believe in God and are faithful followers of Jesus Christ will never need to say goodbye to loved ones ever again because we will be in immortal bodies living in the presence of our Savior (Jesus Christ) in Heaven.

It also reminds me of the song “Goodbye for Now” by Kathy Troccoli. Kathy opens the song singing from the perspective of someone who has lost a loved one. It feels surreal, like a dream. They cannot believe that their loved one is no longer living. That person was their world, and they feel like they cannot continue living without them. It’s to the point where they feel dead inside. She sings about how much she misses her loved one through the changing seasons of life. But then, she remembers that she has hope because, for faithful followers of Jesus Christ, death is not the conclusion. She knows that there will be a time when she will see her loved one again (when they are reunited in Heaven). Joy quickens her voi
