the old man is snoring

I have a 45 minute drive in to work every morning, and I get up really early. So when it's raining and I have to get up that early, it sucks. It's raining here in Alabama this morning -- a cold, wet rain that tells you to stay inside by a fireplace, snuggle with your loved ones and drink hot chocolate. I should have listened.

If you have any questions about your faith, and I question my faith with God myself, this morning's drive was a good time for a Come-to-Jesus-Meeting. I think I hydroplaned three or four times on the interstate, visibility was terrible - especially passing 18-wheelers -- and the wind was blowing me everywhere!


I could just hear God saying, "Are you sure you want to doubt me?"

Then I got to thinking, after my Lord's prayer and chatting with God, rather than say, "OK, I'm going to heaven right now," why not ask what people will say about you after you die?

So if you were to die in a car accident, a flood, a freak accident or however death takes you, but if death takes you today, what would people say about you? You were decent and kind? Thank God your dead? Rot corpse? He's with the angels now?

I have no idea what people would say about me.
