On Death...

Friday, May 19, 2006
The physical death.....When a loved one dies why do they always go to Heavan? When did we get to determine this? Or did God send a memo to some folks to let them know where their loved ones are? I do not think this is our place to say if we go to heaven or hell same if a loved ones dies, we cannot say either way.

Next thing it does say in the bible, in other words, that the good die young. This too is deep in thought and nature. There was a girl die this week. It was in the paper. She died in a car wreck. Only 25, a church goer, volunteer all things looked good for her. We may never get to know why her car crossed the median into oncoming traffic. She was thrown from the car and dies on the scene.

Young. Only 25. Not much younger than I.

Maybe it was her time and God called her home, or her death serves a purpose. Who knows. It saddens me as we may never know what side they are on in the afterlife.

I am at work right now and I cannot ponder on this too much. But I would love to here soon. It has been on my mind with so many folks dead in the news this week.

    Thy way, not mine, O lord


    Thy way, not mine, O Lord,
    However dark it be;
    Lead me by Thine own hand,
    Choose out the path for me.

    Smooth let it be or rough,
    It will be still the best;
    Winding or straight, it leads
    Right onward to Thy rest.

    I dare not choose my lot;
    I would not, if I might;
    Choose Thou for me, my God,
    So I shall walk aright.

    Take Thou my cup, and it
    With joy or sorrow fill,
    As best to Thee may seem;
    Choose Thou my good and ill.

    Choose Thou for me my friends,
    My sickness or my health;
    Choose Thou my cares for me
    My poverty or wealth.

    The kingdom that I seek
    Is Thine: so let the way
    That leads to it be Thine,
    Else I must surely stray.

    Not mine, not mine the choice
    In things or great or small;
    Be Thou my Guide, my Strength
    My Wisdom, and my All.

    ~Horatius Bonar
