After losing a friend unexpectedly, I had the chance to grieve with hope. I find comfort in knowing that my friend is now with the Lord and that I will see him again.
Despite the sadness of not being able to spend more time with him on earth, I rejoice in the knowledge that he is now in Glory with God.
Reflecting on my friend’s life, his faith, and the legacy he left behind has brought me great insight and understanding.
As I rode our shared motorcycle route, I was reminded of James 4:14 – that life is fleeting and vanishes quickly.

I felt as though my friend was urging me to live fully and not hold back, as he had done in his own life.
I realized the importance of letting go and embracing what Jesus has provided for us through His sacrifice and resurrection.
We are saved to live in God’s presence now, not just for the future. To do so, we must release our past sins and embrace the freedom God offers.
Living in the fullness of life that Jesus offers requires faith in His sacrifice and the righteousness, love, and forgiveness He freely gives.
We have been empowered by the Holy Spirit to overcome obstacles and live according to God’s plan for us.
Embrace the hope of eternal glory, live fully today, and be saved for tomorrow and eternity.
