Nine (9) good years! There is something beautiful about time that man will never be able to fathom! And think about it, all these journeys began in just one (1) day. Just one day can change a man's story, his destiny or transform his life. Just one day! We can either make it or mar it. The day a man is born, the day he meets Christ, the day he goes to glory and the day he meets his God are all incredible days!
Each day I am reminded of your brief and beautiful life, it makes me reflect on my today. This day again this year, I am reminded that life is really a cycle of mystery. Your friends and loved ones are not those who flock around you when you were here, but those who also got blessed by your good impacts and great testimonies. I was there at the Redeemed Church and I heard all the beautiful testimonies and saw all the passion in the lives of attendees. It was a day well remembered. A star had gone!
Each day, each year, you remind me of the brevity of life, the value of friendship, the essence of love and the joy of knowing the Lord. Each day should be celebrated by family, your children, loved ones and by all because your life was never a lost one but an accomplished mission.
Today, I thank God for you and I join everyone in celebrating all the good things you have been to us.
The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away; Blessed be the name of the Lord!
