There is a Gospel song called Stomp that I like to listen to occasionally because it has such a free and carefree sound. It is also a little playful for a Gospel song! After about four minutes of joy, the narrator in the song says "It ain't over, it ain't over" and the choir bellows out the chorus a few more times!
Observing or celebrating the death of a child of God should be the same way. We should be bellowing out God's praises then look at each other and say "it ain't over, it ain't over!" ha! I loved the way the devotional talked about Psalm 116. I never thought about how seriously God considers the death of his children. He does not take it lightly! Like the psalmist, we should use these times to praise God and recommit ourselves to a life that gives Him glory!
Lord, we thank you for life and for death. For in both, we can live in you!

Dropcam
Ever wonder what your crazy cats are up to during the day? The housekeeper? The aging parent? The Dropcam is an easy way to attach a webcam to your wireless home network so you watch what is going on in your home while you are away. It is sort of pricey by today's standards for a "webcam" but the easy integration with the home network makes it worth it. You can even view what the cam sees on your mobile device such as an iPhone or Android phone. Pretty cool. You also have the option to store up to 30 days of video "in the cloud" for reference if you like (for an additional monthly charge). Interesting idea. There are two camera models with different HD resolution. They cost $149 and $199. Check it out at https://www.dropcam.com/.
