"The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away, blessed be the name of the Lord." Job 1:21

I am still trying to process yesterday. Learning of the death of a college classmate at the young age of 24. How the Lord was able to accomplish His will through her life in that short of a time period. Though her smile will resonate through the minds of many forever.

Then, I am called to the house of my boss's father at 9:45 am. As my boss went to check on his dad, finding his lifeless father on the floor. 97 years of life, many of us can't fathom being alive for that period of time.

What is the point of this? We will NEVER know when the Lord is going to call us home. Are you living everyday as it may be your last day on earth?! Yes, that is a challenge, especially for myself. That doesn't mean that we are to lock ourselves away in a closet away from society and wait for Christ to return. How absurd!! As children of God, we are to be a witness for Christ and glorifying His name through EVERYTHING we do.
