Not a funeral but a memorial

To remember her face, our love, who she is, and the type of person she was. I dream of Jeannie, islands, sunsets, and heart.

The story of 15

March 20, 2016

Dana was born October 15th, 1964 and always said 15 was her lucky number, jokingly, as she did not believe in luck but that everything was for a reason from God. She did not believe in coincidences. Dana moved to Florida July 15th, 2014, bought her home October 15th of that year, celebrated 15 years of sobriety, in year 2015, her gate code at her condo complex  512,,,, she celebrated her 51st birthday in 2015, she died after twice being put in the ER at the hospital in ER room #15. She was then sent to room 3015, and died in ICU room #15. I proposed marriage to her 11/04 (totalling 15). Her memorial service took place at Wilderness Lake Church..location 15511 US 41 Spring Hill Fl.

Why I asked does 15 keep coming up with her life and death. I asked God and He seemed to speak to my heart to look up the Biblical meaning of the number 15. This is what I discovered:

The number 15 in the Bible pictures rest, which comes after deliverance, represented by fourteen. The 15th day of the first Hebrew month (Nisan) is the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, a day of rest for the children of Israel (and for Christians). The 15th day of the 7th Hebrew month begins the Feast of Tabernacles, also a day of rest.
After dying on the cross, Jesus' body is placed in a Garden Tomb as the sun was setting to begin Nisan 15 in 30 A.D. (Matthew 27:57 - 61, Luke 23:50 - 55, John 19:38 - 42). 

For Christians, the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread (Nisan 15) pictures rest from their sins, having had them removed by Christ's shed blood on Passover. The 15th day of the 7th month begins the Feast of Tabernacles. For the children of Israel, it pictured rest from the long harvest season. They were to dwell in booths in remembrance of their trek in the wilderness.

Prophetically, the 15th day of the 7th month pictures the coming Millennium when the world will have rest from sin because of the binding of Satan on the Day of Atonement. Under Christ's reign, salvation will then be offered to all the world, becoming the great spiritual harvest of God for 1,000 years.

So Dana got what God promised her. She had asked for 5-10 years (total 15) of peace and rest. God said her wilderness journey was over and now she would receive Peace and Rest. She ran her race, she has won, she finished her course. She has now received the PRIZE the High calling of God. Now she sees and visits all the beauty of Heaven even more beautiful than Florida will ever be.
