I am one that normally avoids the news when it comes to children being sick or dying. I have a soft heart and sometimes become very emotional when I stumble upon a story. It's just come to the point where I have decided to avoid some stories
There are stories I'm dragged into because of my wife and her charity work but for the most part I stay away. One particular story caught my eye this week. It's. About a boy who is in hospice waiting to die and it's breaking my heart. What really gets to me is when a community rallies together to make his final days his best days.
It's during these times I and others rely on our faith to get us through. We pray for understanding and comfort.
Through a different experience I learned that sometimes part of a persons mission is to strengthen a community toward God. One thing we never see is the miracle we want and that is for this young boy to live. I have never heard a person who is in hospice care who has been told they are going to die especially a young child and pull through and live a normal life. I would like to see that once in my life. Miracles are not restricted but I/we have yet to experience a miracle like this.
Not my will but thine be done.
