ETERNAL MINDED IN AN “ER;”

An elderly man in his nineties sat in the emergency room. A pastor friend saw him and asked how he was. He shared he had been told by a doctor he had three weeks to live. While in the emergency room the pastor later told how this elderly man was sharing the Gospel- the good news that sins can be forgiven through the Lord Jesus. Indeed, turning to God acknowledging our sin is against Him and submitting by faith to the LORD Jesus as Lord to rule over you and Savior to save you from the penalty of sin. That night the LORD took that elderly saint Home to be with Him. He did not have three weeks, he had hours and he was about the Master’s business in the circumstances he found himself in. Are you? Am I?
