The Beatles had a song called Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da. It literally means ‘life goes on.’ Just a song about a life.
Yesterday’s worship was a tough one. One of our elders has cancer and has decided not to seek further treatment. He has only weeks to live.
But life goes on…
As I sat there with tears in my eyes, the memories of him flooded my mind. I haven’t known him long, but I know his smile. I know his love for God, his family, his church family, and his business family.
But life goes on…
When a person has someone they love die, we sometimes forget the hurting that lasts a long, long time. We get busy with our own lives because life goes on.
But one day…Jesus will return and life will stop. At least life as we currently know it.
No more hurting…pain…tears…only great joy completed!
Praise the One who makes life go on!
