Ariane Noelle Patterson seemed to have the rest of her life in front of her. The 21-year old college student in Boiling Springs, North Carolina, was celebrating her 21st birthday at Gardner-Webb University. She appeared to be healthy and even thanked God on Twitter for giving her another year of life.
“Thank you God for another year of life,” the young woman wrote on her Twitter account. Just a few hours later, the young woman collapsed and died, in spite of appearing to be healthy. May she rest in peace. This reminds us all that you never know how much time you have left.
The university is investigating the cause of death and haven’t yet determined what might have killed the young woman.
I so sorry for the lost. My you rest in peace with the father. Ariane Patterson. the family is in my prayers.

Actually Scripture says that Jesus’ return will be like a thief in the night, not death. Death is unexpected though and to stay in contact with Jesus and have Him in our hearts as our Savior, as this young woman obviously did, is a great boon! We need Jesus, that’s all. Then we won’t be surprised by His return or our homegoing into Jesus. MB
