Will I have mattered; will anyone care, about the life that I lived while I was a stranger on the earth?
Will my name be carried by stories earnestly repeated, of God’s grace glimmering through the presence that was me?
Or will the memory of me lay low in the dust, lost in a pile of ancient photos, hidden, unceremoniously forgotten?
