Your friend put the Kingdom of God first and your life was the fruit of his good decision.
Great post.

I knew it was God’s message to me to write this one the moment I was Nona’s suggested theme for the month.
Thank you Scott for your thoughtful comments!

I can see you thinking, “I believe I have a story that’ll fit that pretty well.”

Staggering testimony, my friend. The best and most authentic are always the ones where you see God’s actions overwhelming your own. And it’s great that you can recognize how God used John’s death have just as strong an impact on others as you.

Quite a journey, both then and since. I praise God for it, and thank you for sharing.

I can’t even imagine all you felt and experienced and questioned in that short space of time. Sometimes God’s plan is incomprehensible to us. I know I felt that way when my brother suddenly and unexpectedly died. From the perspective of time, I’ve seen God’s Hand and witnessed brief glimpses of His plan for all of our lives. At the moment of my brother’s death and weeks later, leaving behind a two year old son, an unborn son, and his wife, I could see no good reason for what God had allowed. What a gift John shared with you the day of the storm! We just never know what’s around the next bend. I’m so glad John followed God’s lead and shared his heart with you. Thank you for sharing this story.
