I'm a Lucky Duck. A few thoughts on death, gratitude, and my Dad. open.substack.com/pub/thegratidu…

@OkimotoKyle Thank you, Kyle!

@Jason_Trice Great job, Jason. Thanks for sharing this. I lost my dad suddenly in 1978, so there are lots of loose ends. This letter is a great idea.

My heart is full. Yesterday we celebrated my Dad. He always said he wanted peace and contentment. I think he found it. I’m sharing what I said at his service here. I’m a lucky duck 🦆 open.substack.com/pub/thegratidu…

@CraigsBrain Love that! Thanks, Craig!

@Jason_Trice Sometime this last year on X I read what has become my favorite statement about death: “he has left the land of the dying and joined the land of the living.” May you and your family be blessed.

“ The sovereign God wants to be loved for Himself and honored for Himself, but that is only part of what He wants. The other part is that He wants us to know that when we have Him we have everything—we have all the rest.” A. W. Tozer

“The biggest obstacle to gratitude is refusing to admit that apart from Christ, we can do nothing.” -Ellen Vaughn

“ Developing the meditative habit of constantly whispering thanks to him— no matter the situation— is in fact a mustard seed of life-changing power.” -Ellen Vaughn

"You only go around once in this life. You can spend it looking for the negative, or you can use God's gift of life as an opportunity for joy and grace." -Tony Dungy
