SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS

In light of the recent passing of our classmate Steve Butterfield (see below), I have a curious sadness at his passing and I'm not sure why. I mean, just like with most every other classmate, I have not had any contact with Steve since we graduated from HHS, so why am I saddened by his passing more so than I usually am by any of our other classmate's passing?

Perhaps it is because Steve and I were teammates at Central Junior High and HHS and we spent a lot of time together. Or perhaps it's just the mortality thing and his sudden passing brings it closer to my attention. I don't know.

What I do know though is, I realize how very susceptible we all are in our lives to the possibility of "gaining the world but losing our soul" in the process.

What good is that?

Our lives are so incredibly short. We all come into this world empty handed and leave the same way. And what really matters, what only matters, is what we do in between our coming and our going and whether or not we can sincerely answer the Lord's question that He put to His disciple Peter, and most assuredly will put to each one of us as well, which was, "Do you love Me?"

I sincerely hope and pray that Steve was able to answer that question in the affirmative. And I hope and pray that each one of us, as well, can answer that question with a resounding, "Yes, Lord, I do love you!"

God does not need us to love Him. But we, most assuredly, need to love Him.
