If a funeral is the celebration of the passing of a life, then that must make a sunset the celebration of the passing of a day. Some days (and lives) are better spent than others, some have great significance, some have the potential to be significant, but never quite live up to their potential. Some days (and lives) have such an impact on the world that they are worthy of an amazing celebration. This particular sunset happens to be on Good Friday, and it is a celebration worthy of the significance of the day and of one particular life that made such an impact that we still celebrate it 2,000 years later. There are so many days (and lives) that have been wasted because we didn't recognize their value. What is your life worth? What is your day worth? You can't get either one back after it has passed. Only you have the ability to change the course of a day (and a life) by the way you influence the world around you. How do you want your life to be celebrated at your funeral? Did you act that way today? The way to have a celebrated life, a life that makes an impact, a life that changes the world, is to make each day worthy of a celebration. God seems to think so, for what other reason would He have made sunsets?
