Out souls mourn because we know death is a result of our sin.

We rejoice because Christ took the sins of His sheep onto the cross with him.

May his family and friends find solace in Christ alone.

This is a sad day indeed. I attended Harvest for more than a decade and have only very recently changed churches to a Calvary Chapel closer to my home. I did not know Christopher, but I did know that he had a very young daughter and his wife was expecting another child soon.

I was just thinking about how fleeting life was yesterday when I was in court and the Judge was two hours late. She said she had been stuck in traffic following a terrible accident on the freeway and when she passed it there was a car with a yellow blanket over it and she knew someone had died. I was thinking about how that person was alive one second and dead the next and how someone had just lost a family member and how that could happen to anyone at anytime. There but for the Grace of God....

I found out last night that that someone was Christopher Laurie.

Greg is expected to preside over the Harvest Crusade in a little over 3 weeks. Greg always said how when these events approached he would be attacked by Satan. I can't think of anything worse than this. I don't think I would be in any shape 3 weeks after such an event to put on an evangelical crusade. We'll have to see what happens. We should all pray that this terrible accident will somehow bring Glory to God.

We can all take comfort in knowing that "all things work together for good" and that despite the attacks of the adversary, God is in control.

May the peace of God which passes all understanding be with Greg and his family during this time of trial.
