I had the privilege of hosting my wife's family this weekend. My sister in law recently lost her husband to CJD. His death marks a turn in the road for all of us. As I talked with each member of our family, I was challenged afresh regarding the brevity of life. James 4:14 tells us that life is like a vapor that appears for a moment and then disappears.
Though we use the cliche "no one is guaranteed tomorrow," few of us really process just how frail life can be. Truthfully, it appears for a moment and then disappears. That knowledge has challenged me to...
Smell the roses today...tomorrow may not come
Re-prioritize my family...a family member may not be here tomorrow
Honor God will all my life...I may face judgment today
Have compassion on those in grief...their hearts are broken
The family in Oklahoma
