Is There Life After Birth?
The story is about twin babies who are having a philosophical discussion in the womb. Their dialog goes as follows:
Do you believe in life after birth?
Of course. Everybody knows there is a life after birth. We’re here now because we have to grow and get ready for what’s to come.
That’s ridiculous! There’s no life after birth. What could such a life be like?
I don’t know exactly, but there must be more light than in here. Maybe we’ll walk on our legs and eat with our mouth.
Nonsense!
It’s impossible for us to walk. And eating with our mouth? That’s crazy. We get our food through the umbilical cord. And obviously there can be no life after birth because the umbilical cord is too short.
Well, I think it’s possible. It’ll just be different from what we’re used to in here.
But nobody has ever come back after birth. Birth is the end of life. And frankly, life is just meaningless existence in the darkness. There’s no point to it, and we’re going nowhere.
No! I don’t know exactly what it will be like after birth, but I’m sure that we’ll see our Mother and she’ll take care of us.
Mother? You believe in Mother? And just where is she then?Where?
She’s all around us! And we’re inside her. We’re her children. In her we live and move and have our being. Without her we wouldn’t exist.
That’s absurd. I’ve never seen this "Mother," so there’s no such thing.I don’t agree with you.
In fact, sometimes when it’s quiet, you can hear her sing and feel her caress our world. You know, I believe that we’re here to prepare for the life to come, and our true life starts after birth.
This is again what happens after death, we disagree that there would be a future life after death and tend not to believe in it. But the fact remains we have a Home prepared for us in Heaven by Our father. Just like in the above story, as it was difficult for the babies to believe that there could be a mother that would take care of them in their earthly life as they had never seen her, the same way just because we have not see our heavenly father it sometimes is difficult for us to believe all that he has kept in store for us in heaven so the key word is FAITH :).
