I just found out my friend died...
Today is such a sad day for me as I just found out my close friend Bob died. I met him on the Quakerparrot forum I belong to. He was so interesting. He was raised in Alaska and for many years he ran a pack of dogs on a sled. Later moved to the Mts of Idaho in the beautiful countryside. He had so many stories to tell! I hadn't heard from him since August 30 as he always sent emails about his faith. I didn't think anything of it until recently I had this niggling feeling "oh No I wonder if something happened to Bob". So I copied and pasted his contacts the header part of the emails and sent a note to all of his contacts. So this morning I got word from his close childhood friend said that Bob had fallen asleep at the wheel and hit an tree and he and his dog died.
I guess I'm crying for me, but I am so so sad that he died. He was cremated and his body is back in Alaska. I'm a Christian and you know I believe in all of Gods promises. Its not always easy tho, bc life isn't easy. And waiting on the Lord is sometimes hard. Our McDonald's mindset we want it now...I want it now. And the heart aches. I know. But I just cant not have faith. In these perilous times for me personally I see all crumbling the worlds foundations shaking. But the Lords promises will Always stand.
One fine day I will meet and see Bob wont that be something!
