If you love someone, let them know today

Last night, some tragic news came across my Twitter feed. 5-year old daughter of singer Steven Curtis Chapman passed away after being struck by a vehicle in the family’s driveway.  I won’t go into any more detail, but you can read about it here.

The thing to remember in this situation is that life is so fragile and unexpected.  In a split second, someone that is very close to you can be taken from you so unexpectedly.  My heart goes out to the Chapman family because they have lost their little girl.  Sure, they’ll see her again one day, but until then, it’s going to be pretty hard for them.

So please, if you love someone, let them know today.  In the event that there isn’t a tomorrow, you will be glad you did.

And please be in prayer for the Chapman family!

    there is a reason for it, whatever it might be, but I think we can be certain that God didn’t make it happen, it just did. Regardless, the family needs His peace right now!

    It makes matters exponentially worse that the driver was their son. His feelings, their feelings towards him…just horrible stuff. Terribly regrettable and unfortunate event.
