Believers can face death with confidence by trusting in the finished work of Christ for their salvation.
Facing death with confidence stems from a firm faith in Jesus Christ, who has overcome death and secured eternal life for His people. As Paul articulates in Romans 8:38-39, nothing can separate believers from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus. This assurance allows Christians like Judy to approach their own departure not with fear but with hope, knowing that their salvation rests entirely on the righteousness of Christ and His promise to never leave them. Thus, it is through faith and reliance on God's grace that believers can confidently affirm their readiness for what lies beyond this life, effectively turning their gaze toward the joy awaiting them in heaven.
