2 Corinthians 5:l "Even though I walk through the shadow of death, I will NOT be afraid because you ARE with me." Psalm 23:4 +
One fact to establish is that if one is born again they ahve the assurance and promise of God that they will not have "to cross Jordan alone". The song says that there will be someone waiting for me....that one, of course, the Lord Jesus. Jues that fact alone should give one great encouragement. test

I suppose that the thing that prompts many people to be afraid of death is the fact of "the unknown"./ The above scriptures have been give to us by the Lord to help ease out conflict with death. As a Christian we should, like Paul, look forward to going through the door. Yet as a sensitive human, we have great concern for those whom we leave behind.
