He posted on Sunday and messaged with me and said that he was ready to go. I did not realize that he would die the next day. What perseverance to keep posting right up until the very end.
So sudden so unexpected, may it be the gift of Jesus righteousness protecting Gibbs from now onward. He will not have to face what's coming. Sad to see him go, but may he be preserved in Christ Jesus henceforth.
NB thank you for sharing this news. It is sad to hear, but comforting to know that Gibs will wake to see Jesus' face. He encouraged us to lift the standard high, and that is what I will remember. It appears that he knew his time was nearly ended and that he needed to be ready. We all need to be ready:
