The images of the last days I spent with my father have been forever etched upon my heart. I will never forget the love and devotion heaped upon him by his family and friends. It was a rare and special thing and I can only conclude that the man or woman who goes into eternity loved like that is rich indeed.

“They all wept as they embraced him and kissed him.
What grieved them the most was his statement that they would never see his face again.”

— Acts 20:37-38

Lord Jesus, help me to live selflessly and to die a beloved man. In Your holy name I pray. Amen.
