Dear friends:
One of my 17-year-old grandson's best friends suddenly collapsed and died during high school basketball practice the other day. He had no known problem. This was a shock to all.
The handsome young man was popular and well-liked, and played varsity sports.
But there is good news: He got saved last year!
My grandson and his friends "Tweet" a lot. The last Tweet that his friend sent him just last week was, "If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take." Does that grab you, or what?
Thankfully, he is with Jesus in Paradise now.
This emphasizes the importance of child evangelism. Don't ever think your child or grandchild is too young to respond to the gospel. You would be surprised. Tell them about Jesus, who He is and what He has done for them. The Holy Spirit will bear witness to them. They will be eternally grateful.
