Last week, I lost a very close friend, John Woodward. I miss him greatly already and will continue through the years. John was my prayer and accountabilty partner and kept me on the straight and narrow way, God's way. I have never seen anyone who was concerned over the salvation of everyone he met. He was eager to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ and how He saves us from our sins and separation from God, to anyone who would listen.
John was riding his bike around the trail of Salem Lake here in Winston Salem when he had some kind of accident and ended up in the water. A jogger saw him and got him out of the water. The medical examiner said he did not drown. They are perplexed at the cause of death. There were no signs of trauma from a fall. Maybe God just took him home to be with Him.
John will be missed by many, illustrated by the number of people who took time to attend his memorial service. I know John is in heaven with the Father and is asking all the questions he could not answer from reading his Bible. We all miss you, John, and we will meet again someday in the Love of the Father God.
