Death brings forth life.
The Lord called Moses and spoke to him from the tent of meeting, saying, "Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, 'When any one of you brings an offering to the Lord, you shall bring your offering of livestock from the herd or from the flock.'"
Leviticus 1:1
In the beginning, God told us that if we chose to sin, we would experience death. And so it was and is. Since Adam and Eve's sin, we have seen and experienced many tough times. We watch a cycle of life that depends on death.
I am alive today because an animal or plant died, and the nutrients from that plant or animal sustain me. The trees in the forest are alive because of the death and decay of leaves, animals, and other plants. The lake is alive because of the death-formed muck layer that lines the bottom.
I am physically alive due to the death that surrounds me. I am spiritually alive because I choose to die. Death brings forth life, and those who try to live while avoiding dying to themselves will never really experience life.
