92-Year-Old Mexia Man Killed in Multi-Car Collision

A 92-year-old man was killed in a multi-vehicle trash on US 84, east of Mexia, on Monday, April 27, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety, Buddie Marce Thompson, of Mexia, was driving westbound on US 84 in a 2009 Volkswagen Beetle and had stopped in the main lane while attempting to make a left turn, KWTX reported on April 28. A driver in a 2018 Toyota SUV collided into the rear of the Beetle. The impact pushed Thompson’s vehicle into the eastbound lane, where it was struck by a truck-tractor semi-trailer.

Believed

Martha, talking with Jesus in John chapter eleven said, ““Yes, Lord,” she told him, “I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.” The verb believed in the Greek is perfect tense signifying belief at a point and time in the past with a fixed, settle faith in the present. In her statement she is saying that at a specific point in the past she had accepted Jesus as the promised Messiah, her personal savior. This is the most important event in all of life that we should remember. The event when we by faith prayed and ask Jesus Christ into our hearts to be our personal savior. Knowing that He alone can forgive us of our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Every person reading this devotion should have a personal testimony of when this spiritual new birth took place in their heart. Jesus said to Martha, “I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.” Can you claim this promise of God? Will you pass from this life at the point of death and enter into Heaven?
