You are gone, but your memory will live on in my heart. I will do my best to let people know that you were here for a time, because you matter to me. It is my wish that when I die, the fact of your existence does not die with me.
I will see if it is right to fight for you, to see if the reason you are not here is because of human error. If that is the reason, I will start a fight. Even if I do not win, I swear the fight will be known. Link, I need to know why this happened to you. I...just need to know.

Link,
"Cornelius answered: 'Four days ago I was in my house praying at this hour, at three in the afternoon. Suddenly a man in shining clothes stood before me and said, 'Cornelius, God has heard your prayer and remembered your gifts to the poor. Send to Joppa for Simon the tanner, who lives by the sea.' So I sent for you immediately, and it was good of you to come. Now we are all here in the presence of God to isten to everything the Lord commanded you to tell us." Acts 10:30-33
For some reason today, this passage spoke to me. This is what Cornelius said to Peter when they met. Peter was a Jew and Cornelius was a Roman, a very unlikely meeting under circumstances of the time. This is how he answered when Peter asked why Cornelius sent for him. In reply, this is what Peter said:
Then Peter began to speak: "I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritisim but accepts men from every nation who fear him and do what is right." Acts 10:34-35
This brings several things in to my mind. The most unlikely of converts of the time became a Christian. So I am finding that maybe I should re-evaluate my motives in having doubts about certain people. I am happy that the Lord showed this to me, Link.
Please remember that I love you as you look down on me from heaven. I know I have many flaws, and have never denied them. I will see you again some day.
Love Forever,
Mommy
