I would ask everyone to remember Martin and Amanda, two young parents from my church. This young couple needs your prayers during this time of grief.
Aydin Downs (just short of his second birthday) was called home to be with the Lord today. Aydin had battled Lukemia for most of his young life, today that battle ended.
You will notice that I did not say "he lost", here is why. I never heard little Aydin utter a single word, but he always was smiling and happy and that smile spoke volumes. Through him countless family members and others were led to the Lord.
That smile was a testimony in itself and will be the memory that I will hold of him. How trivial all of my problems become when I think of the constant smile that he carried through all of the treatments and operations.
The burden now falls to us not to forget Aydin's bravery and......his smile.
All of you who will, please join me in praying for these young parents, their family, and all of us who have the difficult task of moving forward without Aydin.

Rev 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
