I have to share this, as this man is always an inspiration to me & makes me cry every time I read his journal as he battles his cancer & continues in his faith. A wonderful man and witness of God….written by Dale Price
First, I must praise my God for the times of respite at this time. He has given it to me and to my wife and family as a temporal blessing.
Second, I must remember that my life, like yours, is terminal. My days are numbered and I must choose to live them in Hi Definition. Even without the immediate terror of spreading disease I must maintain a mind set that clearly sees the things that have eternal value and the things that do not.
Third: Obedience, love, and faithfulness are not things that can be put off until tomorrow. To rejoice always or to pray without ceasing I must begin now or it will never happen. These things can’t wait for the trigger of fear. They must begin today and then continue when tomorrow becomes today.
Fourth: My life is not my own. I have been called and saved according to God’s own mercy and grace. This life I live is His life and I pray that Christ will be exalted whether by life or by death. He gives me Divine appointments every day. This is the day the Lord has made for me to live and I am to live it to His glory.
