Yes, indeed it is. One of my sons, Ronnie, died yesterday in a car accident. His son, Caleb, also died in the accident with him. But I was very proud of the man he had become and he was a great Dad to his children.

Life is short, even for those of us who get the longer rides. Love those you are with and let them know their place in your life.

The day before he died, he had preached in our church in the morning and I was so proud of him. He knew it and when it was over, he walked up behind me and rubbed my shoulders for a bit and leaned in and told me, "I love you, Dad." I told him that I was proud of him. They were to be my last words to him.

Don't sweat the small stuff but don't put off the important stuff.
