Pastor Kenny Stokes of Bethlehem Baptist Church gave some sweet and comforting words as we memorialized the life and death of our beloved Micah. Kenny takes us through the final moments of Micah's life, affirming God's sovereignty amidst great pain, reminds us that it isn't about us but about His glory, and encourages us that our hope for Micah is the same as our hope for ourselves: Jesus' work on the cross. Micah is indeed in the arms of Jesus. Through tragedy, we stand upon the promises in God's Word. And even though it's incredibly difficult, we echo the words of Job "The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away; may the name of the LORD be praised."
Here is the audio of the memorial service if you are interested in listening to it. It is about 50 minutes in length.
Micah's parents, Cory and Heather, have started a blog in order to work through the grieving process. We invite you to visit their site: www.mourningformicah.blogspot.com/, mourn with them, and send them a note of encouragement.
