This past Friday a wonderful friend was called "Home". He was doing what he always did driving his tractor and working in the yard. I am sure that his day most likely started with morning devotions and working on a Sudoko puzzle...then time to go outdoors and work. After 87 years he had a routine.
His grandson of 20 something had stopped to visit while his beloved wife of 67 years fixed them lunch.
How could anyone know that a tragic accident was about to happen... the tractor would overturn and crush him underneath.
This gentleman was my Dad's best friend. In losing him it once again reminded me how truly fragile life can be.
Like many of you I have had to say goodbye far too often in this past year to loved ones, neighbors and friends...one being my dear mom.
Death is a real part of living and we never know when it will be our time or of someone we love.
How important to walk and live each day as if it is your last for someday it will be.
So I will leave you with this thought...hug someone you love...tell them what they mean to you...forgive anyone who has hurt you and ask forgiveness for hurting another and above all seek "His" peace. We really only are here for a brief time.
"Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes." James 4:14
