Mike was married to my youngest sister who went to heaven about a year ago. Mike was not a believer but she was. Mike was a good husband and step-Dad to my nieces. He was also honest and a good person. We discussed salvation through Jesus Christ, God, and the Bible. He delighted in trying to disprove it all. Nobody ever wins these arguments. Finally, one day I looked him straight in the eyes and asked if God proved to him He is real, beyond the shadow of doubt, would he then believe? Sadly, Mike answered no.
That was some years ago before my sister died. Since then Mike's health started failing. He had one partially functioning kidney and went to the hospital several times for treatment. There were a few times since then I had opportunity to share with him how I came to be a Christian. I prayed for him every night.
His body finally gave out and now Mike is gone from this world and will be missed. I sincerely hope he had one last chance to ask God's forgiveness.
Say a prayer for my dear old Mom and Mike's children and grandchildren.
