I found out today that someone who was a very faithful Brother in Christ died today of a brain tumor, leaving behind a wife and a 2 and 4 year old. Through the whole ordeal, the family continued to be faithful, never giving up hope and actually praying for his battle to end. Even as of last night, they continued to be faithful, posting today on their care page that their prayer has been answered and that Spencer is now at home with the father, rejoicing and praising God.
Solomon reminds us that it is good and proper for a man to eat and drink (not getting drunk mind you) and to find satisfaction in his labor...during the few days that God has givn him...he seldom relfects on the days of his life because God keeps him occupied with gladness of heart (Ecc 5:18-20).
Remember to enjoy whatever lot in life that God has given you, whether you are rich or poor, a laborer or a CEO. We don't know how soon God will decide to take our life. Remember that he knew us before we were conceived and planned each second of our life. Spencer was only 30. But even though I did not know him, God used him in a powerful way to influence the lives of others.
