At his death he was only 39 years of age. After his long battle with cancer, the Lord saw fit for him to leave this world. He left behind a wife and three young children, the oldest only ten years of age. He was a great help and an inspiration to the congregation, and he attempted to live a life that was right in the eyes of the Lord. With his passing, I was able to realize with greater magnitude that death is no respecter of persons.
Death knocks on the door of the old and young alike.
Death does not favor anyone. When our stay here on earth is through, there will be no more time to make our lives right. Sometimes we have difficulty dealing with the death of loved ones, whether they are in the church or not. Sometimes there are even those who blame God for the death of a loved one. But this kind of thought should never enter our minds.
