Who’s To Say There’s Tomorrow….
September 11, 2009
2:57 PM I found out that my friend, Clement, had passed away.
3:00 PM I called others because I prayed it was a joke.
3:40 PM I was sure.
College won’t be the same without him. Without his jokes and smiles.
The saddest part isn’t how much I’ll miss him with the time I’ll be here on earth.
WHY didn’t I push harder with the gospel? He was a friend that I loved. Who are we to say there is tomorrow for our friends, for our families?
“He’s in a better place now.”
Can I say that? Can I REALLY say that?
Don’t wait. Tell all the ones you love that you love them. Does the small little things you guys argue about really matter compared to the love you have for them? Are you willing to take the chance of them never being able to accept Christ?
A few days ago. I asked my friends on facebook if they are willing to answer Jesus. Someone jokingly said no but brought up a big argument between some Christians and I. “You’re coming on too strong. People won’t want to hear you.”
I felt like backing down and started thinking about my friendships more than my friends. It seemed like all I would get out of this boldness may just be hurt. Then what? I keep trying to pray for Clement. WHAT CAN I DO NOW?
STOP loving your friendships more than your friends. So what if you are insulted by those who insult God? The Bible already told us it’s going to happen one day. I love YOU more than I love our friendship.
Today, as your friend, I BEG you to come to Christ.
I don’t know what else to say or how to end this.
R.I.P. Clement Tsai. I still don’t want to believe it….
