Your Days are Numbered: Honest Reflections on Facing Death

Your Days are Numbered is the autobiographical sequel to the late Rev. Robert Lewis Gilbert's book No Excuses Accepted (1988) which was completed a few months before his death in 1992. He was fifty years old. Rev. Gilbert never lost his faith in God although taken to death's door again and again because of hundreds of hospitalizations and surgeries for chronic illnesses; witnessing his own father die; burying his best friend in college, and even being held at gunpoint. Rev. Gilbert's powerful testimony invites readers, in whatever stage of life, to cherish the gift of life and to accept the reality of death with dignity, courage, and grace while trusting in God.
