Another email


     When I had spoken to the women's ministry about doing a Hope Box gathering, I had always started with a short version of Kaitlyn's story and I would bring a stack of the blog cards I made for people that wanted to read more of our story to grab and take with them.
     One day, I got an amazing email from on of the moms that was in a group I spoke to:

Hi Amy
You spoke to my Bible Study this morning! Thank you so much for sharing your story I know that must be difficult for you. Your strength to use your pain, experience and growth to minister to others is such an amazing gift!

I wanted to email you to encourage you in your ministry and tell you something that happened today.
When I got home from Bible study I pulled up your blog to read your story. My almost 5 year old son ask what I was reading. I told him I was reading about a baby. After several questions I told him that she was in heaven. This sparked the question in him " mom am I going to heaven?" I was able to talk to him about salvation and he ask Jesus to come into his heart! I wanted to tell you so you would know your daughters story is ministering in ways you could never imagine!

I am going to rally the troops and see what I can come up with in way of donations. Thanks again for sharing!

Blessings,
Bonnie 

       I cried over this email. I promise you, I could have stopped writing at that exact moment because I remembered somewhere in the beginning I said that I would rejoice in the day that a stranger emailed me and told me that our story had lead them to Christ. And here it was. Better yet, it was a kiddo that was able to ask about Heaven and find out the glory of Jesus' sacrifice for him. 
       What an amazing day.
