On Thursday I undergo surgery. It is a fairly common operation, however I am at high risk. I am nervous about having this procedure done, despite the fact that it will change my life forever in a positive way. Even though it is possible that gastric bypass surgery can in some cases lead to death, I am pretty certain that what I am doing now, isn’t living.
I do not feel human. I exist outside of the rest of the populace due to my size. I know full well that I did this to myself. There have been millions of choices that I have made that has led me to this point. Changing my decision making process at this point has become impossible without help. I need a drastic change.

I am a thief, I am a murderer
Walking up this lonely hill
What have I done? I don’t remember
No one knows just how I feel
And I know that my time is coming soon
It’s been so long. Oh, such a long time
Since I’ve lived with peace and rest
Now I am here, my destination
I guess things work for the best
And I know that my time is coming soon
Who is this man? This man beside me
That they call the King of the Jews
They don’t believe that He’s the Messiah
But, somehow I know it’s true
They laugh at Him in mockery,
And beat Him till he bleeds
They nail Him to the rugged cross,
They raised Him, they raise Him up next to me
My time has come, I’m slowly fading
I deserve what I receive
“Jesus when You are in Your kingdom,
Could You please remember me?”
And He looks at me still holding on
The tears fall from His eyes
He says “I tell the truth,
Today, you will be with Me in paradise”
And I know that my time is coming soon
And I know paradise is coming soon
-Third Day
Christ gave up His life, was nailed to a cross, and was tortured to death to pay for our sins. Three days later he arose to give us hope. We can all ask Jesus to remember us, though, He has never forgotten. He knew us before we were even created. He knows us better than we know ourselves, and He wants us all to live with Him in paradise.
He has arisen too heaven! Let’s meet Him there.
