If you do nothing else today- WATCH THIS VIDEO!!!  I consider this one of the most amazing things I have EVER SEEN!!! I can only imagine what was going through the mind of that pilot as he realized he may be dead in a very short while.  How we intellectually deal with death says a lot about how we are living our life.  For those who are Christians, the following will be a familiar passage...
Matthew, Chapter 28 (NASB)
Mat 28:1  Now after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to look at the grave.
Mat 28:2  And behold, a severe earthquake had occurred, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled away the stone and sat upon it.
Mat 28:3  And his appearance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow.
Mat 28:4  The guards shook for fear of him and became like dead men.
Mat 28:5  The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid; for I know that you are looking for Jesus who has been crucified.
Mat 28:6  "He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying.
Mat 28:7  "Go quickly and tell His disciples that He has risen from the dead; and behold, He is going ahead of you into Galilee, there you will see Him; behold, I have told you."
Mat 28:8  And they left the tomb quickly with fear and great joy and ran to report it to His disciples.
Mat 28:9  And behold, Jesus met them and greeted them. And they came up and took hold of His feet and worshiped Him.
Mat 28:10  Then Jesus *said to them, "Do not be afraid; go and take word to My brethren to leave for Galilee, and there they will see Me."
Jesus was crucified, dead and buried.  As far as the world was concerned, it was all over.  Christians know better!!!  Because Jesus lives, the fear of death no longer has a grip on us.  We have hope because we know that something better is in store for us. So, like the pilot in the video, let us make the most of our lives and who knows... anything is possible!!!!
