Last night I saw a slew of postings about a young man who went to OK as part of a mission trip to help tornado victims. His car was in a head-on collision and his life was taken from him.
What a way to go...
I don't even know him and there is an air of sadness when I think of his parents and family. Then I think to myself, God used him and in that moment this man of the Lord had done all he had to do.
He was an example to youngsters, he gave up his time to go on a mission trip further showing the level of sacrifice.
What an example!
May God be glorified through this guy's life and death.
On the other hand, my aunt suffered a stroke a few days ago. Initially they said it was pretty minor now they are saying she is bleeding in the brain.
Am I sad?
Sounds weird when I even think it but I am not sad about her condition physically as much as her spiritual health. If only she would confess that Jesus was her Christ but she finds it hard to believe she is lived because of the life she has lived.
Its easier said than done is what anyone would say from the outside looking in. And that would be a valid statement in her case. Except if you see how God really has been there through every step.
If only the veil would be removed so she could see that.
Father, may it be so!
A life of sacrifice is great but a life that glorifies and points to the Creator will always trump anything we can do.
Love God and the rest will follow...
