Dan Blocker played Hoss Cartwright during the thirteen-year run on Bonanza. He died at forty-three just a year before the concluding episode. He had gone for gallbladder surgery and developed a blood clot which took his life. Blocker said he portrayed the gentle-natured Hoss character with a Stephen Grellet excerpt in mind: “We shall pass this way on Earth but once, if there is any kindness we can show, or good act we can do, let us do it now, for we will never pass this way again.”
Isn’t that a good saying to go through life with? Do you know that the Bible has many such sayings?
Colossians 3:12-13
“Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.”
Today would be the day to put this into practice.
Think about it.
