If we don't, we will regret it for the rest of our lives.
Today I went to the funeral of the mother of a college junior sister in Christ.
After the service, the bereaved family stood next to the coffin, and mourners lined up
and walked towards the coffin to offer condolences to the bereaved family members.
I stood in line with her college roommate.
I greeted the bereaved family members, but my college junior sister in Christ
who had left her mother was crying a lot.
I just shook hands with her who was crying and said to me, “Thank you, Pastor,” hoping that she would be strong.
Later, while having a meal with the junior's college roommates at a restaurant,
I learned that my junior sister in Christ confessed her love to her mother,
who was lying in the intensive care unit, before her death.
Hearing this, I encouraged her that she did a good job with thankful heart.
What made me think again today is that, before letting go of the person whom we love,
we must say what we really want to say in our hearts to our loved ones before they die.
If we don't, we will regret it for the rest of our lives.
