Rumors of My Demise

Some of you know, some don't. but yesterday I was in a small car wreck.  Nothing major, a truck got out of control and was coming toward me I ran into a ditch.  I am fine, no worries.  But life in a small town is marvelous.  10 minutes later, I was killed in that car wreck!  LOL  It's funny now, but to a group of people on this list it wasn't funny at all.  They scrambled to find out what happened.  In the process of the wreck, I got out of my truck and my phone fell into a foot of snow.  I finally found it and it was off.  I figured it was gone.

I went on to the station.  My phone was off, I was working.  Long story short, when I turned on my phone I had a ton of texts asking me if I was ok, please text me back, etc.  One text explained what had happened and I texted everyone back as soon as possible.

I was talking with some of these players last night and one statement stood out.  "I thought this morning was my last chance to talk to you and I didn't reply"

James 4:14 tells asks a great question:  "You don't even know what will happen tomorrow.  What is your life?  You are a mist that lasts for a little while and then vanishes."

We really don't know when our life is going to end.  I don't say this to scare you, Yesterday I "died" for about an hour.  People felt terrible.  People were upset, sad, worried, concerned.  Why?  I am not totally sure.  One young lady said, "Actually, I knew I would have to be happy for you.  You would be up there partying with God, but you know me.  I'd be selfish.  I need you for advice."  I was happy that some people felt they would miss me, but I also felt weird that others were worried because they thought I was gone.  But I am ready to die. I don't have a death wish but I'm not afraid of death.

The lesson?  Don't take life for granted.  Don't take people for granted.  Let people know how you feel just in case tomorrow never comes.  Also, be ready.  Be ready for heaven. If you ever have any question about your salvation I am always here for you.

If I had died yesterday, I hope you know that I love you!  Have an amazing day!
