Hello friends,
I'm teaching from Ecclesiastes, the ninth chapter today. In this passage, Solomon, the writer, tells us we all have one thing in common: DEATH!
No matter our skin color, age, if we are rich or poor, sad or happy, we all die. So says the wise king.
Oh wow! He's right, of course, but talk about a morbid subject! I decided I needed to bring a bit of light heartedness to my class, so I looked up people who died with a sense of humor. Here are a few epithets they left us to enjoy.
What will your obit say? Will you have something special engraved on your tombstone?
Hubby and I have ours in place. I have an angel on my side of the thing, and he has a church on his side. I write angel stories, and he's been a preacher all his life. We've also included Scripturas. His is Romans 8:28 and mine is Philippians 4:13.
The date of demise isn't there,
and I hope it isn't there for a long time to come.
As challenging as life is at times,
it's still a good thing.
