Yesterday evening, I visited a friend's grandpa at the hospital.. The events that told place at the hospital sparked memories I thought I had settled aside. Memories of my own grandfather, whom passed away a few years back.
My grandfather passed away around the Christmas time, and frankly it came to me so suddenly, that I just could not accept the fact. I could only remember a blur of events, rushing down to the hospital, only to see him already passed on... To think that I last saw him a week ago.. And now there he lay before me, unable to respond to me anymore...
I was in a state of shock, and became depressed for quite some time. I just wept and wept, in realisation that I would never see him again. Another realisation was, I had lost my opportunites to bring my grandfather to church and get him saved. The chance is lost forever... A number of hurtful, unjust words were thrown at me, adding on to my anguish and pain. That was one of my darkest weeks of my life.
Years have passed ever since that period of time. I already moved on, thanks to the Love of God and His peace. Grudges and unforgiveness that surfaced at that point of time were forgiven and forgotten. The only thing that remained in my mind was how sudden life can be, and thus the urgency to see the lost saved.
Folks, life can be filled with things that you will least expect. Let us grab hold of whatever time and opportunity we have and reach out to the people around you. Till everyone is saved, let us not stop reaching out. Let us not give ourselves a chance to regret when the time comes...
