My wish....

Our church family has experienced a deep loss of a very beloved member. A good friend lost her sister very unexpectedly. A niece-in-law lost her grandmother to pneumonia. All of these deaths occurred within a 24 hour period, Christmas Eve and Christmas day. Death is uncertain, unpredictable and uncontrollable. The finest doctors, the strongest medicines cannot help if God's will is to call you home. We can't avoid it; and we can't anticipate when it will happen.

That is why it is so important for us to show our loved ones how much they mean to us every moment of every day. Squeeze joy out of every moment. We never know when one breath is the last breath. We don't know what God has in store for us from day to day, but we do know He wants us to enjoy the life we have been given.

My wish for each of you is to enjoy every moment you are given and to live your life so your loved ones know how important they are to you.
