Trapped! Everyone wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die!

So for today:

Some of us have thought of how we would prefer to meet the ‘Grim Reaper!’

I have been present with family members more than once when the last breath was taken. That is a SAD but SPECIAL time.

I just read of the explosion at a mill in PA.  The explosion leaves some ‘trapped’ inside. My heart goes out to them. Of all the ways to die, I sure do not want to be trapped and KNOW there was NO one able o get to me.

Many years ago the military paid in cash.  When a ship left port it had enough money to pay every one aboard for a few months; therefore there was a lot of cash aboard a US ship. On of my jobs aboard placed me inside a steel compartment with my M1 rifle loaded with 3 rounds. There were 5 safes in that compartment. When the OD (Officer of the Day) left me, he locked the steel hatch on the outside.

Looking back that was a weird feeling. I laughed at the thought of death back then Several people knew I was there. BUT if the ship would start sinking fast, Imma doubting if I would be the top of their minds. AS you guess, I had no worries since that was over 70 years ago. LOL

Trapped!!!! Thousands of folks have headed for eternity from that position. That does have one advantage, you have time to talk to the Lord, :-O

Horatio Spafford Wrote “Is it Well with My Soul” after his 4 daughters died when their ship sank.”

I don’t hear that song many times, but when I do, my mind wanders back out to sea and the many souls whose bodies are below the surface.  Great question, “IS IT WELL WITH YOUR SOUL?

Love you guys, THANKS for taking time to stop by.
