I was reminded, yet again, yesterday of the frailty of life. We get up every day and go about our daily tasks and To Do lists without a second thought. But the reality is that none of is guaranteed another day.
Over the weekend, a dear friend and 1st B family member passed away at too young of an age. Eric was one of those guys who everyone liked. He had a smile that made others smile and a personality that made us smile as well.
He went to bed in Littlefield, Texas on Saturday night and woke up in the very presence of God. I am sure he had no idea when his head hit the pillow that he would wake up in another place, but that is what he experienced.
When something like this happens, it forces us to reexamine our own mortality and think about life as a frail gift. None of us know what tomorrow will bring – but we can see what today holds.
What will you do with your today to make it count?
