I received a letter today which started with “WE CAN’T PREDICT THE FUTURE, BUT WE CAN HELP YOU PREPARE FOR IT.” And then it said, “Dear Mr Dekarski As you already…”

My response:

Dear State Funeral Insurance People,

I am glad that you are admitting that you cannot predict the future. Because you cannot predict the future you cannot really help me to prepare for it.

But I know that the Lord Jesus Christ knows the future and I know also that the Lord Jesus Christ has prepared a glorious future for me. I do not want to go into details in this letter. May this brief note suffice for the time being. But should you be really curious, read the Bible, the Word of the Living God.

Kindest Regards,

Werner Dekarski

PS: We are not so short of money that our funeral costs cannot be paid!
