This is so beautiful and whenever I seen it this morning on a
friend’s Facebook post. All I could say was, “Wow!” I don’t know the story
behind this family or how the child died. I can’t read the date of birth or date
death for Matthew Stanford Robinson. I read that his father wanted his
tombstone or headstone to depict that he wanted everyone to know that his son
is, “free from his earthly burdens.”
That is such a beautiful sentiment to me,
because we all face different problems, issues, trials, and tribulations in our
life. However, if we reach out as this child is shown to be doing, maybe we can
find a way through these situations that bring us down. It is heartbreaking
that he lost his son at such a young age, but to know he is no longer in pain
or bound to a wheelchair.
It just sets my heart on fire for God; because I know
when my journey is over I won’t have to live in pain daily either. I can only
say what an amazing father to do this for his beloved son and all should
appreciate their lives as they are, because life could be worse. We all could
be taking a dirt nap!
