....“To have Jeremy back and talking about this amazing experience of being with the Lord was the most wonderful day of our lives,” says his mother, Brenda. “He named all the relatives he’d seen and we just sat there crying. Then, after a while, we realized he hadn’t said anything about my mom, Grandma Spencer....”
....“Every time we asked he just shrugged his shoulders and said, ‘Nope. Not there,’” says Brenda. “We suggested maybe he didn’t recognize her because she looked younger in heaven. He smiled and said, ‘Mom, you recognize everyone in heaven. Grandma wasn’t around.’”
Recall when Larry King “died” on the OR table? During heart surgery? He said he didn’t see the light, only darkness...
Maybe all dogs don’t go to heaven after all...
I think this sight is comedic in nature.
Let’s eat grandpa
or
Let’s eat, grandpa?
Then there’s the story about the rich man who, upon finding himself in Hell, begs to be allowed to warn his relatives.
Perhaps, Grandma was allowed to warn relatives, through Jeremy?
That SHOULD be the message from this story.
This is a comedy website (there is another article about a “Church for Jerks”) and this article is wonderfully subtle in its comedy. The more I think about it, the more amusing it is. Hey, some grandmas are real b___tches on wheels and probably aren’t in heaven.
I don’t put much stock in the words of a four year old boy.
Boy i’m emailing this around!
I don’t know which one looks more like an angel — Jeremy, or Grandma Spencer. One thing is for sure, they both have a mischievious glint in their eye!
I’m guessing ole’ Grandma probably voted for Obama right before she died. An unforgivable sin.
This site is filled with church comedy articles:
Man Starts Church for Jerks
Man Arrested for Drunk in the Spirit Driving
Tweeting Causes Pastor to Lose Wise Reputation
They are all very funny if you are involved in a church community.
Clever story. I am always a bit amused when someone proudly claims to be an atheist but when a child is ill will ask you to “think good thoughts”. Seriously? Prayers are silly but “thinking good thoughts” is good?
First of all, was the child close to death? If this was just a regular surgery (I know it says emergency but plenty of emergency surgeries aren’t life and death), this could have been from anesthetic or even a dream. If it was a real near death experience, then there is some kind of message about grandma, but I wouldn’t presume she was evil and went to hell. I wouldn’t know what to think. The afterlife is probably pretty complicated.
Did Grandma vote for Bambi, perhaps?
Votes have consequences, you know. Just look what our country looks like after only three years.
Heh. That’s so wrong.
Might have been on the shuffleboard court. Or catching the early bird special at Scott’s (They give you a tenderloin, a salad and a baked potato, for four-ninety-five. You know what that cost you after six?).
Here is a link to a book I read years ago titled ‘Dying Testimonies of the Saved and Unsaved” at http://www.amazon.com/The-dying-testimonies-saved-unsaved/dp/B00085VSXK
Maybe Grandma Spencer was at the BINGO HALL!! Unless Grandma Spencer was a mean SOB...
