>>> > the 
>>> > seat 
>>> > beside of her in the car. The drive home was hard and it was even

>>> > kept them. She laid down across his bed and cried herself to sleep 
>>> > holding 
>>> > his pillow. Sally woke up about midnight and laying beside of her on 
>>> > the 
>>> > bed, was a letter folded up. She opened the letter, it said: 
>>> > > > 
>>> > > > Dear Mom, I know you're going to miss me, but don't think that I 
>>> > will 
>>> > ever forget you or stop loving you because I'm not around to say I 
>>> > LOVE 
>>> > YOU. I'll think of you every day mom and I'll love you even more 
>>> > each 
>>> > day. 
>>> > Some day we will see each other again. If you want to adopt a little 
>>> > boy 
>>> > so 
>>> > you won't be so lonely, he can have my room and my old stuff to play 
>>> > with. 
>>> > > > 
>>> > > > If you decide to get a girl instead, she probably wouldn't like 
>>> > the 
>>> > same things as us boys do, so you will have to buy her dolls and 
>>> > stuff 
>>> > girls 
>>> > like. Don't be sad when you think about me, this is really a great 
>>> > place. 
>>> > Grandma and Grandpa met me as soon as I got here and showed me 
>>> > around 
>>> > some, 
>>> > but it will take a long time to see everything here. 
>>> > > > 
>>> > > > The angels are so friendly, and I love to watch them fly. Jesus 
>>> > doesn't 
>>> > look like any of the pictures I saw of Him, but I knew it was Him as 
>>> > soon 
>>> > as I saw Him. Jesus took me to see GOD! And guess what Mom? I got to 
>>> > sit 
>>> > on GOD'S knee and talk to Him like I was somebody important. I told 
>>> > GOD 
>>> > that 
>>> > I wanted to write you a letter and tell you good-bye and everything, 
>>> > but 
>>> > I knew 
>>> > that wasn't allowed. God handed me some paper and His own personal 
>>> > pen to 
>>> > write 
>>> > you this letter with. 
>>> > > 
>>> > I think Gabriel is the name of the angel that is going to drop 
>>> > this 
>>> > letter 
>>> > off to you. 
>>> > 
>>> > God said for me to give you the answer to one of the questions you 
>>> > asked Him 
>>> > about... Where was He when I needed him? God said, "The same place 
>>> > He was 
>>> > when 
>>> > Jesus was on the cross. He was right there, as He always is with all 
>>> > His 
>>> > children. 
>>> > Tonight I get to sit at the table with Jesus for supper. I'm sure 
>>> > the 
>>> > food will be 
>>> > great. I almost forgot to let you know - Now I don't hurt anymore, 
>>> > the 
>>> > cancer is 
>>> > all gone. I'm glad because I couldn't stand that pain anymore and 
>>> > God 
>>> > couldn't 
>>> > stand to see me suffer the pain either, so He sent The Angel of 
>>> > Mercy to 
>>> > get me. 
>>> > The Angel said I was Special Delivery! 
>>> > > > 
>>> > > > Signed with love from: God & Jesus & Me 
>>> > > > 
>>> > > > 
>>> > > > Take 60 seconds and give this a shot! Let's just see Satan 
>>> > stop this one. All you do is this: 
>>> > > > 
>>> > > > 1) Simply say a small prayer for a the person who sent you this 
>>> > and 
>>> > > to the people that you are sending this e-mail to, asking that God 
>>> > deliver 
>>> > > > him/her/them from burdens, pain and discomfort. 
>>> > > > 2) Send this on to at least five other people. Within hours, you 
>>> > > caused a multitude of people to pray to God for each other. Then sit 
>>> > back 
>>> > > and watch the power of God work in your life for doing the thing 
>>> > that you 
>>> > know 
>>> > > He loves, knowing that He is also working in the lives of others. 
>>> > > > 
>>> > > > JUST TALK TO HIM. ENJOY YOUR DAY! 
>>> > > > 
>>> > > > Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own
