God created man out of the dust, and back to the dust he goes at the word of his creator. By his word we live, and by his word we die. Believers do not die because of age, disease, or a decree of fate, but by the will and word of our Heavenly Father. An old writer once said, “Even an angel cannot save me from the grave, nor could a thousand angels put me there.” Our times are in his hand! One of our friends was asked if she had any preference concerning when and how she would die. She replied, “No, indeed, those matters are in the hands of my Father.” “But what if he would refer it to you?” “Then, I suppose that I would refer it back to him again.” Just teach us, Lord, to number our days that we may apply our hearts to wisdom.
