Last night my grandpa passed away and as bad as I'll miss him, I'm so thankful that he isn't in any pain anymore. He was a wonderful person and the best Christian I've ever known, I know he's in heaven right now enjoying his mansion.
He was in so much pain for so long and seeing him hurt so bad was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. He showed me exactly what a true Christian is suppose to be and up until the time he died he was praising God for everything he's done. Not one time did my papaw ever get upset or lose faith with God for getting cancer. I can't say that I was the same as my papaw. I just couldn't understand how God could let a wonderful man like my papaw get cancer, I just wanted to know why someone like him has to go through so much pain but people who lie, steal and cheat don't have to. My papaw showed me though that I can't be mad at God, I need to praise God for everything he's given me. If I can just be half the Christian he was then I'll be doing really good. I'll miss him something terribly but I know he's in the best place ever and in no more pain, I know he'll always be watching out for me. As my papaw always said, "It'll be alright" and "Praise Jesus", something he never stopped doing.
