Today we attended a memorial service for my brother-in-law's dad. He passed away Tuesday night after dealing with cancer for the past three months. It came to all of us as a shock back in September when Randy was diagnosed with skin cancer. He has been a long time friend of our family and it was tough to see him in pain. The amazing thing is...he's finally free of the pain and home with Jesus. Here are my thoughts on how Randy's life has impacted me...
When Randy was diagnosed with cancer back in September it really put things in perspective for me. I thought of how short life is and that every day needs to be lived to the fullest because we don't know what tomorrow will hold. It also made me realize how thankful I am for having Jesus in my life. I know that when I die...Jesus will be waiting for me with outstretched arms, and boy am I thankful for that. One last thought is that Randy's situation in dealing with his cancer has led me to many opportunities to share my faith with people. Praise God!
Randy, you will be missed so much by all of us, but your legacy and love for all of us will live on forever. We will never forget you and the love that you had for Jesus. I'm glad you're home!
