Birthday Prayer

On what would have been Michael Stokely’s 25th:

Thank you God for answering my prayer 25 years ago and letting me have my boy, even if only for a little while.

   A Man Of God. May he be blessed for his understanding.

   I thank God every day that I have never lost a child. That would be the worst pain imaginable.

   This day, the day of Mike Stokely’s 25th birthday, is not a day to be sad, but a day to remember and rejoice, for the fact he lived at all.

   Amen. A good man, and I am certain that he raised a good son as well.
