Irene’s fistula pre-op visit to UCSF was uneventful. I donated blood at the Blood Center while she was being examined.
It was an interesting day as we received word on several other fronts. A colleague of mine at InterWest passed away from cancer. Another colleague will be donating her kidney to her brother in the near future. My cousin’s wife is in the hospital and learned that cancer has spread to her internal organs. Our close friend and one that worked with Irene at Monte Vista Christian School learned that she has cancer. Another close friend was hospitalized from physical exhaustion.
All of these reports are emphatic reminders that our days on earth are numbered.
Our physical bodies eventually waste away and we lay them aside. However, our SPIRIT lives on …. forever.
Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.
2 Corinthians 4:16bbecause you will not abandon me to the grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay.
Psalm 16:10
We are HOLY in God’s sight by being clothed in the righteousness of Christ. By His wounds we are healed and we are also redeemed for eternity. We are inwardly renewed as our minds are transformed by knowledge of the Holy One.
We are comforted by His Word that never changes and will last forever.
LATE BREAKING NEWS is always sensational and alarming, especially when it affects our humanity. That’s why it’s imperative to keep our eyes on ETERNITY.
