I can’t recall ever having three funerals in one week–nor five within a month’s time.  But that’s what I’ve got.  Two more this Friday.  I appreciate these opportunities, actually.  At a funeral, people are confronted with the reality of death and I have the opportunity to point them to Jesus as the only answer, the only hope that we really have in this world.  Life is short–even if lived fully as our current ages would recon–in the span of eternity.  We need the forgiveness and life that only Jesus brings.
