Josiah now in the arms of Jesus

From Josiah's Dad via Larry in our office:

At 12:22 AM on Wednesday morning, Josiah Lee was embraced by his best

Friend. Ten days ago he fell asleep in Disney World and this morning he

woke up in heaven. It doesn't get much better than that for a four-year-old

kid. Fifty-five days ago Josiah's journey began. His short life recently

touched thousands and some of us were privileged to bask in the warmth of

his light for almost five years. Looking out from the balcony of our room

in the Disney resort over the splendor of the Magic Kingdom, Suzie

commented that the whole Disney trip seemed almost surreal. Last night as

Suzie and I were reminiscing about little Josiah I realized our life has

been surreal. Josiah lived a "Make A Wish" childhood. One day soon we'll

get our wish trip when we're reunited with our little blonde haired, blue

eyed boy - 'Siah, my Siah'.

 

"For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to

us... that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we

despaired even of life: But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that

we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead: Who

delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that

he will yet deliver us." (2 Corinthians 1:8-10)

 

Please continue to pray for the Herring Family.
