Every now and then you hear conversation about peoples' bucket list. Your know what they are. A wish list of things individuals would like to do before they die. Go on a great adventure. Visit some far off country. Or whatever else one would like to do before dying.
Personally, I would like to cycle with dolphins. Most peoples' bucket list includes swimming with dolphins; but let's face it, what is so clever about that? The dolphins are in their environment and they swim, and you swim with them.
I would like to do something more challenging. I like to get the dolphins out of their comfort zone. I can cycle. Let's see how clever they are! I challenge them to a cycle race round the park in my town; or a leisurely cycle trip in the countryside.
Seriously though, people have all these grand ideas of things they would like to do before they die. I wonder how many have on their list the wish to:
Prepare to die.
What? What do I mean to prepare to die?
I mean:
“I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one goes to the Father except by me.” John 14:6.
