GOOD FOR YOU!! you planned, you worked and you can live a great long life happy and not worrying about finances.
In all seriousness, it made me just a little crazy (20 year marriage with three daughters and we were both “Christians” and I never saw it coming).
This is why it’s so easy for me to embrace Paul’s “to live is Christ and to die is gain.” I see this life as the Matrix or a video game. And when it’s over, you enter the REAL world.
I can’t wait. Seriously. I’m enjoying life far more than most, but I very much see it as the temporal thing it is.
I like to say that every single human being has the exact same life span, and we even have a word for it. That word is, “today”.
Maybe the stock market is not going to crash. Yeh that’s the ticket. :-)
I've laid awake nights worrying about that.
