The Story Of Brenden Foster

This little boy of eleven yrs old died last week from leukemia but his life was not in vain...this little boy dying wish was to feed the homeless people he saw on the way to the hospital! can you believe it? a little boy who is dying instead of packing instead of crying instead of being angry all he wanted was to help feed the homeless some sandwiches!!! i wish nowadays we could find people with hearts like Brenden Foster who do selfless things! and its amazing how he knew he was going to die soon...he said ill probably not be here next week but i had a good life and ill continue to have a good life until i leave....i put myself in his shoes and i realized that if i knew i was going to die next week i would NOT be sooooooooo calm!!! i would be freaking out...i would think of all the things i wanted to do...like travel to europe, travel around the world...have babies with my husband...buy a house, etc etc but this little boy all he cared about was feeding the homeless and planting some seeds so wildflowers could grow for the bees...some volunteers gave Brendon his wish and feed 200 homeless people and after that there was this big food drive all thanks to a little boy....its unbelievable the difference on how children think and us older people think no wonder God says unless we become children again we wont see the Kingdom of Heaven because the Kingdom of Heaven is promised to the children and now i understand why because children are not selfish...they have a good heart and no matter how much we punish them or put them on time out...they always come to give us hugs, kisses, and tell us i love you....unlike us..if someone yells at us we would probably never talk to them again!!! we always remember the bad things people do to us and we dont forgive but luckly the children do forgive and forget so lets pray that God helps us become more like children and that we may have hearts like children because all they know how to do is love... God bless and Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
