So sorrowful for our loss of Caleb Foster Glidewell, such a beautiful soul.
“So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. And so it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit. However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual. The first man was of the earth, made of dust; the second Man is the Lord from heaven. As was the man of dust, so also are those who are made of dust; and as is the heavenly Man, so also are those who are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man. Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed— in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.” “O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?” The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
I Corinthians 15:42-57
Peace and comfort, dear wife and family of this child of God!

Although we did not know Caleb for very long, it only took the short time we knew him for us to realize how special and kind he was. Caleb truly was such a sweet soul. Sending love and strength for healing.

Sometimes you meet people who are everything you could ask for in a friend. You love and respect one another and celebrate each others’ joys and pray for each other in the difficult times. It is absolutely effortless and you just thank God everyday for them. That is what I found in Caleb F Glidewell. He and his fiancée Hannah Glidewell started attending our congregation and it was the most natural thing in the world to become friends with the two of them. Watching their love made me so happy. They breathed each other’s love in like a sweet perfume and it was beautiful to witness. When they looked at each other there was no denying that these two had something special. From time to time Caleb would call me up to chat, Hannah always there by his side. We would talk about so many things, well into the wee hours of the morning. I would always give God thanks for bringing them into my life after those calls. Just having a friend call you up like that, because they want to, it is a precious thing. Earlier this year Caleb told me that he was looking for a new job. He and Hannah were able to travel together when he was an over the road driver, but he wanted to put down some roots. He missed the close relationships he had found growing up in Tennessee. I told him you can’t take the country out of a country boy, and he agreed. If there was ever a part of Caleb I appreciated most, it was his country roots. He reminded me so much of my Daddy…he wanted a family, friends, and to be a good man. We both loved bluegrass and acoustic music and being an American. When he and Hannah relocated to Auburn this Spring, he video chatted with me to give me a virtual tour of the house. He talked about how he wanted us to come down and visit, and how blessed he felt. I could tell he had found a place that felt like home, and with Hannah beside him he was finally content. We hadn’t had a chance to talk much since the move, but when you are good friends you understand that sometimes life gets busy. On August 5th Caleb posted on his Facebook page asking for prayers, he was in the hospital and not doing well. On Tuesday this week, he passed away. My heart aches for people like me who know Caleb and Hannah. My heart aches that I will never get another late night call or a random text from him. My heart aches that Hannah had to be away from him while he was in the hospital and when he passed away. My heart aches because they had something so very beautiful and their time together was not even remotely long enough. My heart aches being away from Hannah at this time. My heart aches. As hard as it is to know Caleb is no longer here, I am so glad that I met him. I am so glad to still have Hannah as my friend. I am so grateful for the short time that I was able to be friends with him. I am most grateful that he and Hannah met and fell in love. These last few years of both their lives were so sweet, so full, so promising. Most of all, I am glad that Caleb gave his life to Christ. He was a humble man, an imperfect man who wanted to become a better man. He wanted to be pleasing to God, a blessing to his family name and to be a good husband to Hannah. He lived everyday to be better, to be a friend to those who needed one, and to just have a simple existence filled with family, friends, and love. Caleb is no longer here with us in person. He is asleep, resting until the day when His Lord and Savior appears. I look forward to that day, now more than ever. This week I have had a lot of conversations with God about how broken this world is. I have talked about how there is no justice, no fairness. Things are such a mess and there is a lot of sadness and bad things in this world. I told God this morning, “I know Caleb belongs to You. I know You love Him more than anyone. I know He is safe with You and that I need to rely on Your promises that You will provide comfort for his friends and loved ones. I know all of this but I still miss my friend. I am still heartbroken for all of us who knew him because he was a really good friend.” I know God understands, and I know that everyone who had the good fortune to know Caleb feels the same way.
