Gone Too Soon: Gone the Story Told

By Johnnie M. Newsome-Lewis

I know from experience how quickly your life can change when your loved one has been snatched away from you, when your crush turns into the love of your life, and when your love turns into your spouse and partner forever. Just know that sickness and disease can strike anyone at any time. Dont ignore sickness that appears to be minor. Take care of yourself and of others around you. Give thanks for everything. Psalm 139:14 (Amplified Version) says, I will give thanks and praise to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are your works, and my soul knows it very well. Trust God for everythingeven the sudden death of a spouse or loved one and even when yours has been taken away from you so quickly. Spend each day as if it is your last day, be kind to others, and make someone smile so that God will be glorified.
