[00:03.68]There was a woman who had been diagnosed with a terminal illness
[00:09.28]and was given three months to live.
[00:12.01]As she began getting her things ‘in order’,
[00:14.84]she asked for her pastor to come to her house
[00:18.16]to discuss certain aspects of her final wishes.
[00:21.54]She told him which songs she wanted sung at the service
[00:25.14]and what dress she wanted to be buried in.
[00:27.77]Everything was in order and as the pastor was preparing to leave,
[00:32.17]the woman suddenly remembered one final request,
[00:35.99]"Please Pastor, just one more thing," she said excitedly.
[00:40.39]"This is very important to me," the woman continued ...
[00:44.43]"I want to be buried holding a fork in my right hand."
[00:47.85]The pastor gazed at the woman, at a loss for words.
[00:51.44]"That surprises you, doesn’t it?" the woman asked.
[00:55.16]The pastor replied "Well to be quite honest, I am puzzled by the request".

[01:23.98]The pastor listened intently and a smile came upon his face.

[01:40.98]‘Keep your Fork ... the best is yet to come’".
[01:44.93]She knew and trusted that the best was yet to come.
[01:48.75]At the funeral,
[01:50.17]every one that walked by the woman’s coffin
[01:52.24]saw her wearing a beautiful dress with her favorite Bible
[01:56.43]held in her left hand and a fork held in her right hand.
[01:59.93]Over and over the pastor heard people ask the question,
[02:03.64]"Why is she holding a fork?" and his smile began to get larger and brighter each time.
[02:09.73]During his message, the pastor explained the fork and what it symbolized to her..
