It’s tough. My grandfather has always been a really outdoorsy kind of guy. I would’ve thought that when he no longer had a garden or workshop, he would sort of give up and fade away. Not so. I’m glad he didn’t.
Then he lived in an apartment for a while, but his health (and his wife’s, who has dementia) got so poor that both of them had to be placed in a nursing home. I thought he’d give up then. Nope.
He’s had numerous health crises now, including a stroke. He seems to have adapted to the nursing home and still will tell anyone who asks, “I’ve had a pretty good life.” I don’t think I’d want to be in his place, but I admire the man’s tenacity. He takes a lot of killing, and he has a good attitude. Of course, his mind’s still fairly sharp too.
I don’t know how I’ll end up, but I hope I can face my fate like he does.
Did Jesus not tell us that we will not suffer judgement for our sins if we accept hime as our saviour? If so then does it not mean that a Christian who commits suicide will be forgiven?
