Recently I received a message from my wife about a sad story. Our son was getting his haircut and the hairdresser explained that a few clients before him a woman was getting her hair done and received some horrific news. Her husband was traveling overseas and was killed in an accident. She told her hairdresser that she just lost the love of her life. My heart goes out to her and her family. This is tragic. I can’t help but put myself in her shoes and wonder how I would handle this situation. It has got me thinking quite a lot about the love I have for my wife and kids and other family members. Do I live my life in such a way that my family knows of my love and concern for them? I think it is good for us all to do a check up on ourselves so that there would be no regrets.
A few days ago I was sitting on a plane next to an elderly couple who are clearly still in love. They were cuddled next to each other gently holding each other’s hands enjoying a conversation. It was pleasant to watch and experience. I don’t believe either of these people have any doubt of their love for one another. We just never know when God will call us home. So I think we should leave no question in the hearts and minds of our loved ones how we feel about them.
