"The Choosen Ones"
Not just any child could walk this uphill road.
There children walk in everyday, carring a load.
They show us what it is to fight;
An fight you cannot teach
We stand beside them
knowing there is no guarantee.
Except the one we started with,
to love them endlessly
They are special chosen ones,
God knew it from the start.
God picked each child for Cancer,
by the measure of their heart.
The ones that measured biggest
would someday face a test.
The challenge is to understand
God loves them more not less.
God is using them to move out hearts
Closer to his own.
Teaching us to trust his plan,
and fear not the unknown.
This poem was written on the handouts at a Memorial Mass for 10 yr old Hans Sebio who passed last week waiting for a heart transplant. I am greatful I got the pleasure of meeting this amazing boy and his family
