At 1:23 PM, ET, the word has just come from the Vatican that Pope John Paul II has stepped into eternity. As Jesus said, he has passed from death unto life. This extraordinary man who loved God with all his soul is now in the presence of his Lord. May God welcome him into his eternal reward.

I just finished posting a memorial to him on my blog, www.patriotflyer.blogspot.com. I invite you to go over there and read it.

God bless you and keep you in His grace.

Amen.

UPDATE: At 2 PM, ET, the Vatican corrected its earlier statement, saying that the Pope’s heart and lungs are still functioning, but that he is very near the end, with failing kidneys and other organs. He is reported to be in a terminal coma, only a matter of time until he decides to go home to the Lord.
