Entered April 17, 2021

My dad was a great person. In life, he sought to live in peace with everyone. In death, he wanted us not to worry or feel sad.

He wanted us to keep trusting in Jesus because Jesus gives us the hope of eternal life and the hope to meet again. In his last words to us, he told us to remember the spiritual realm, to spend more time reading the Bible and spreading the Gospel. He truly understood the shortness of this life and even told others about Jesus in the hospital. Though I am saddened, I am very happy because of dad's shining example and his unwavering faith even in the face of cancer.

I am truly grateful to have such a gentle spirit as a father growing up. He was compassionate, brave, gentle, and strong. He was kind and understanding beyond what I regularly saw in the world. During his last days, my father did not complain. He told us to keep clinging to Jesus and did not want us to worry. He cared about us even when his time was running out. He comforted us when we should be the ones comforting him. He showed me true strength. Strength in the face of cancer. Strength when death was around the corner. Strength to follow God through thick and thin. Strength to love and be selfless to the end. How can I not be proud of such a father?

Glory to God because God has given my father strength and love. I am beyond happy to have played badminton with him, made new food with him, sung karaoke with him, drove with him, gone through life with him, talked politics with him, and talked the Bible with him.

My father gave, and he gave, and he gave. Then he forgave, and he forgave, and he forgave. I am so very thankful and grateful for the love dad showed me and all the times he was patient with me. I could not ask for a better father.

We are here to day and gone tomorrow. I will meet my dad again and it will be wonderful beyond words.
