In An Instant

   My Sister said something very profound to me while she was in the hospital earlier this year. She had suffered a seizure and a mild heart attack. I was extremly sick and would not dare try to go to ICU. I didn't want to compromise her health any more than it was.

The connection we have with each other is something only God has his hand on. I remember it clear. I was in bathroom praying, it had to be about 2 am. The phone rang out...It could only be her. I ran to the phone and a faint voice said: "Some people beg for money, clothes, and other material things, I beg God for my life." It was true, we are so focused on things other than God, that we forget we can be snuffed out in an instant.
