“Tommy”
5/18/85-1/21/93
On January 21, 1993 around 6 PM this beautiful redheaded, freckle faced seven year old walked down the hallway of our home for the last time. Looking back, I can remember in the moments and days right after just feeling numb. My brain just did not want to comprehend what had happened. When I awakened each morning, I would sit up in bed and face the reality that he really was gone. At that point, I began to feel quilt, because God had given me this beautiful child to love and care for and I had failed. How could I keep going? Twenty-two years have passed since that day. I have prayed that Tommy and God would forgive me for failing as a mother and I have had to forgive myself. I am thankful for the seven years with Tommy. I am thankful that I led Tommy in accepting Jesus as his Savior. I am thankful for a Savior who loves me, forgives me, and restores us. More than anything I rejoice in the fact that he has prepared a place for us with himself for eternity. Because of what Christ did for us, I will see Tommy again.
John 14:1-3
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe in me,
In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would
have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive
You unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
