A man died at my work last night by being crushed in a huge plastic molding machine with tons of hydraulic pressure. This was not because of any doing but really the actions of the man who died. However, another man was the one that started the machine and you can only imagine the burden of guilt that rests on this man. He is unsaved and I spent several hours with him and my pastor in the early morning talking and comforting him and sharing the Lord with him -- which he is receptive to, but has not chosen to believe with faith at this point.

The man who died left behind a wife and three children. He was only 31 years old. I had just began to build a relationship with him so that I could share the Lord with him, and it is now too late. The images in my mind will not leave anytime soon as I was the first responder to the incident and have walked in this man's blood.

Please pray for all involved:

For this man's family that they will turn to God to help them through there loss.

For the man that started the machine: that he will trust the Lord for salvation and that God will help him come to terms with this and lift away his guilt.

That God will comfort me and my co-workers who knew this man and saw the destruction and will be constantly reminded of his life and the loss of it.

That I will move with urgency to share the Lord with all and not burden myself with the guilt of not knowing whether he was saved, but be ever reminded of how fragile life truly is.

Please pass this on to all you know and ask for prayers.

Thanks and God bless,

Futurehope
