In Memory of....
May 14, 2009
My nephew, Timothy Jabari Kibet Chumba was born at 9:49am; 5lbs 14oz 18 3/4 inches and returned to our Heavenly Father at 2:10pm. Our prayers are with the family.
I am reminded of "The Lamb Story", and send my prayers to be with the Chumba family.
"In the summer time, when the grass in the lower valley dries up and withers, the shepherds seek to lead their sheep up the winding, thorny and stony pathway. The sheep are reluctant to take the hardships; so they turn back and will not follow very far. The shepherds make repeated attempts, but the timid sheep turn back. Finally, a shepherd reaches into the flock and takes a little lamb, and places it under his arm, and then he reaches in and takes up another lamb and places it under the other arm. The he starts out up the precipitous pathway; soon the mother sheep start to follow, and afterward the entire flock. They ascend the tortuous trail to green pastures.
The Great Shepherd of the sheep, the Lord Jesus Christ, our Savior, has reached into the flock and He has picked our lambs. He did not do it to rob us, but to lead us out and upward. He has richer and greener pastures for us, and he wants us to follow."
Charlene, I am so very sorry for the loss of your nephew. Your sister will be in my prayers as well as your entire family. Thank you for your incredible support to my family as well.

PS My word verification for this comment is "WINGS". How appropriate for a picture of a new little angel.
