I received a very shocking news from my colleague today. Our dearest friend just passed away this early morning due to a sudden stroke. We just met him on a meeting few days ago and now he's gone forever. The death is so sudden and easy. He collapsed at his house, been coma for few hour and the next thing we knew, he's gone. We lost a good teacher and a friend. May his soul rest in peace.
Lately, I've been surrounded by unpleasant news and they all are related to death. Death, the word which probably hated by some or maybe a topic some people will try not to talk about. It's because everyone is afraid to die I guess.. who doesn't anyway?
I've been thinking about it too and I must confessed that I am afraid to die, and it's for one simple reason, I am not ready yet. My father once said, we should not be afraid of death. It's a wonderful thing because death brings us to an eternal life with our Lord Jesus Christ. My dad said it is no use living in this world reaching 100++ years old but burden everyone else. How I wish I can have that kind of mind now. Thanks for the wise thought daddy.
Until now, I still can't imagine myself to be dead. But in the meantime, lets just hope that if the time comes, we are ready to face our Lord face to face. So, be good while we are still on earth, served one another and give thanks in everything. Are these enough for me to enter the kingdom of God? I'll never know. Just hope for the best and be prepared all the time..
Till the next post people..
