Faithful

What if the last words you posted on Facebook were to become your mantra? The words that people associated with you for the rest of their lives as they heard them. Words that defined your short time here on Earth.What if your very last post, hours before you journeyed to meet your maker were to define how you lived your life?

Sunday Ibok was taken off life support this morning and is finally resting in the Everlasting Arms of his Creator. The day before he went to the hospital with a headache that would end his life he posted "Faithful" on Facebook. He absolutely is and was to the very last minute of his life. I posted yesterday about how Facebook has been impacted by this tragedy. Today a graphic is circling around of the world Faithful in a scrolled design with Sunday's name below it.


You can purchase the canvas in various sizes here. 100% of all profits go to Sunday's family to help pay for medical bills.

His death has certainly reminded me of the importance of life. A reminder of why we are here, what our mission is on this Earth.

One of Sunday's last conversations was telling friends that he was at last confident in his walk with God. He knew that God was enough. He didn't need a marriage, or children to define him or complete him. He served a God that he knew made him whole and that is all he needed.

He is a reminder to yearn for that. God is enough! He is all we need!

Thank you Sunday for reminding us of what we are doing here and that this world is not our home!

May my last words not be about how tired I am, or some grumpy episode I am having, but let my every word be glorifing God Almighty!
