DAILY READINGS: 2 Chronicles 14-15; Ezekiel 36:16-38; John 14:15-31

And Amasa wallowed in blood in the midst of the highway. And
when the man saw that all the people stood still, he removed
Amasa out of the highway into the field, and cast a cloth upon him,
when he saw that every one that came by him stood still.
2 Samuel 20:12

People stop and stare when lives are ended abruptly. It’s a solemn
reminder of human frailty, the brevity of life, surety of death, and
length of eternity. Death is not if, but when. Not how, but where.
When it finds you, will you be ready for eternity? —Rex Trogdon

Life at best is very brief, like the falling of a leaf,
Like the binding of a sheaf, be in time.
Fleeting days are telling fast, that the die will soon be cast,
And the fatal line be passed, be in time. —Anon.
