Life is Precious (Video)

The question for us today is, will we be like the majority of Israel and continue to look in fear at the giants in the land and urge our fellow Christians to be "realistic," or will we be like Joshua and Caleb and faithfully follow our king, trusting to fulfill every one of his promises completely?

I think you should warn people if a video is going to make them cry.

Thanks for sharing that.

So heartbreaking. Makes my trials seem trivial.

I saw that almost a year ago I think. When I saw the title to the thread, I thought of that video. Amazing! Also, knowing they are Reformed makes a lot of sense in the context of how the family dealt with their loss. I think only a true Child of God could thank Him for His gift instead of cursing Him for taking away their child. Praise God and His wonderful gift of His Son, Jesus Christ.
