How we deal with death is at least as important as how we deal with life.
-- James T. Kirk
If I were to die today I don't believe I'd have any regrets. To my knowledge I don't have any disputes with anyone. I don't have any unconfessed sins. I don't have deep regrets that haven't already been healed by JESUS. I don't think I have anything that I'm wanting to tell someone. Overall, I think I'm pretty set for death.
For my wife and kids, I hope I can hang on at least a few more years, and I'm really hoping the Lord gives me at least another 50 or 60 years, but if not, oh well.
I don't know why such a weighty matter is on my mind today, but I thought I may as well write about it. Hopefully years from now I can look at this post and say, "I'm just as ready for death as I was back then."
