Thank you.

[@kelleymcfadden9675]

Sometimes in life we are hit hard by devastating circumstances. Many do not know where to turn and have no hope of ever finding peace. I would love to share with you my best friend's story with the prayer that you will understand where true peace can be found like nothing this world can offer.God bless you. Precious Memories-By Sonya Lakey Family Story Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day. My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening. That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** This testimony has been made into a gospel tract.

Thank you for your honesty.

[@joniekberg9419]

Thank you, I just saw Cheryl on Joni table talk or may have never watched this. My mother died suddenly in 1997, her mother 4 months later and my brother 16 months later. You are an answer to prayer.

[@melissahylton79]

Thank you for sharing your testimony. My son went to be with the Lord 2 months ago. God has blessed me through this. To continue to run, he'll strengthen us to do it no matter what comes. God bless.

[@wandanevers9678]

I remember watching you speak about your journey of mourning to morning back then. I, too, went through a faith journey suddenly on December 7, 1999, when my husband went on to be with tge Lord. I had 3 small children at the time. I resonated with the mourning to morning because the Lord had put that same phrase in my spirit before I had even heard you speak. You both are a tremendous blessing to the body of Christ with your honesty and faith. God bless you so much more!

[@sandrareyes987]

[@sherylconrad3185]

Thank you for sharing! I have a friend that lost her 7 year old daughter in 2021 from the exact same thing. She and her husband are believers, but they are crushed. I'd love to have this in Spanish so she could hear it Soon after that other friends of ours lost their daughter to the exact same thing. They are stronger Christians and seem to have kept trusting the Lord like you mentioned, Cheryl. Is there any way to have this in Spanish? We are missionaries in Mexico.

[@sarahconnor4757]

You may have to contact them directly...may be through their website??

[@Arabella--Leigh]

God Wanted Her in Heaven, So He Took Her Home , it Was His Will !!

[@iluv2worship]

😊With all due respect and kindness remember: the Lord tells us in John 10:10 the enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy but I came that you may have life and have it more abundantly. To God be the Glory!

[@crownofthornsministry1760]

Everyone lives and dies. No one is promised old age on life's journey. Some return to the spiritual world while in the womb, others as babies, toddlers, pre teens, plus teens in fact death is applicable to every age. So we need to be thankful for every breath rather than habitually presuming that we will wake up every morning. No one knows the day the time or the hour but death is a promise that is always kept. When my husband died 3 years ago I got sick. My back still hurts with grief. Its the void of his permanent absence that is hard to live with. But I truly accept death. I truly accept God's will in everything. We are purposefully here. Once our earth work is done we return to heavenly realm. Imagine the chaos of a world where no one died. God keeps it moving. Souls come and go continously. As you leave you make room for others. It's a blessed and loving process. Like they said in the video our loved ones are in our future. Meanwhile life goes on. Laugh and enjoy life while you still have it. Tomorrow is not promised 😂💖👏🙏🙏🙏

[@danielapearls1491]

Faith not tested is not faith. Its just a belief and people believe in a lot of things. People believe in buddah, witchcraft, hindu, medicine, science!!! There are lots of beliefs and if your faith is not tested to be tried and true it is not real. Faith must be tested or it is just a belief✝️ Faith is who Jesus is and what He did for us. Not what happens to us but in who Jesus is✝️❤️🙏🏻
