I know a little girl who at the age of about 3 died from smoke inhalation in a fire in her home. Her parents said when they brought her out, you could see she was dead.
The paramedics worked on her and finally brought her back. Months later, when she was old enough to talk better, she slowly began to tell her parents about heaven. Like this little boy, the story came out over time. To me, the most touching part of the story was that she said Jesus met her with cheerios. Her folks said cheerios were her favorite thing in the world. Jesus met her in a manner she could relate to.
ok, the cheerios got me........I teared up at the image of Jesus meeting a little girl with cheerios.
