Fisherman's Prayer: I pray that I may live to fish until my dying day. And when it comes to my last cast,I then most humbly pray, when in the Lord's great landing net and peacefully asleep that in His mercy I be judged BIG ENOUGH TO KEEP!

Hunter

Why God? I know everything happens for a reason. I know everything has a purpose. And I know its all a part of Gods plan and is meant to be! That being said what is Gods plan for Hunter. Hunter is a little boy in my class. He will be 5 years old in August. The last 2 weeks he has been sick off and on. He has asthma and has been needing more and more breathing treatments throughout the day while at school, the doctors at one point where concerned about his heart as well. His parents are VERY young and have no insurance so they have not been able to afford to do some of the testing the doctors wanted to do. Now they have no choice. Tuesday afternoon Hunter walked up behind me pulling on my shirt, I looked down at him his face was pale his lips where purple and he was gasping for air. I yelled down the hall for help someone came and got him and took him to the office right away for a breathing treatment and to call his dad. Wednesday morning when Hunters dad brought his little sister to school he told us that over night Hunter was admitted to Cooks Children Hospital. Today they got the news that Hunter had Lukemia. I completly fell apart when I heard this today. He is 5! what purpose does God have for a child of any age to have this sickening disease. Dont get me wrong I am not questioning Gods plan or doubting him in any way, I just dont understand! For now I guess all I can do is pray for Hunter, his sister Hailey and his parents. God Bless Hunter! and please God whatever it is you have planned for Hunter dont let him suffer!

I am Blessed

maybe Hunter is one of the special ones that is only here for a short time. So he can teach/reach those around him. And remind them that life is precious. And to use it well!
