Johnny’s mom exemplifies a parent whose priorities in life leave her with no regrets in her grief.
Her words to me last night in the visitation line were precious,
“He was a gift. I have no regrets.”
What mom doesn’t want to have those words on her lips in such a painful moment?
Praying we all reevaluate and get it right so that more children feel the love that so clearly
surrounds Johnny even in his passing on to the next life.
I’m so thankful for the witness of this precious mom this morning.
She comforted thousands last night with a smile and words of hope for all.
That’s what God does for a mom whose life is centered on Him.
As we pray for the Fankell family and all of Johnny’s classmates today,
let’s take time to pray for a world full of hurt and pain.
What have you been called to do today?
What you do for Him is what matters most………..
In December of 2007 as our youngest son, Nick, was fighting brain cancer, I began to blog. Writing provided a way for me to release all of my questions, fears, and doubts. It also allowed me to share the ups and downs of Nick's journey with people who were praying for him all over the world. When Nick went Home in November of 2008, my blog became my way of searching for God in the midst of my deep heartache. My heart was broken and grief brought to the surface every emotion imaginable. Being able to release those emotions through my writing brought a sense of purpose to my pain. Having already walked the road of grief in 1992 when we lost our daughter to SIDS, I knew I needed a way to keep from falling into a pit of depression and despair. I had walked close to the edge of a bottomless pit when we lost our daughter,and I knew I couldn't let myself get that close to the edge again. This blog has been and continues to be my tiny corner of the world where I can share My Heart as I journey through God's Word.......thus the name........ My Heart His Words. Thank you for taking time to share life with me. If we do not meet while here on earth, I look forward to hearing all about your life when we reach our final destiny.........Heaven!
