My friend Chris who is a global outreach minister and goes to some nasty, scary places to bring God's word such as Ethiopia, northern India where radical Hindus rule, and Liberia said that my purpose here may well have been to show through my suffering how a man of faith in Jesus lives and how he dies. I may have brought many closer to Christ and eternal salvation and when I do pass, I will hear, "well done, my faithful servant."
I want to thank you all once again for how you have touched my life with all the prayers, support, and love these past two and a half years. It has made more of a difference in my life than I can put into words. I love you all.

I rarely ever post on here anymore, just mainly read but I had to say that your words were powerful. You are indeed showing how a man of God faces his own mortality and doing so with a grace and dignity that is worthy of respect and honor. Thank you for sharing it with all of us and may you truly embrace those words "well done, my faithful servant". Perhaps we will have an opportunity to meet up in heaven one day and cheer on the Chiefs and share their annual disappointment and wonder if this will indeed be the year they draft a QB in round 1.
