Ray Ortlund's letter to his family

In 2000, shortly before his death, Dr.Ray Ortlund wrote a brief letter to his family. He placed it in his desk, knowing that it would not be found and read till after he was gone. You can read the letter here.

I'll say nothing more. It speaks for itself.

I feel like Ray. When I die, take me down to the church, let the choir sing, the congregation rejoice, the preacher deliver the Good News and have an alter call. Let revival break out! Then and only then you can return me to dust, as my work is now done.
