Our Faith Footprints
Our Faith Footprints
A few days ago, a dear cousin (Royce Milton Beckett — on my husband’s dad’s side of the family), graduated to heaven and, of course, thoughts go to the precious times we had with him, as well as the footprints he left behind for us to follow. He was a beautiful soul, but most impactful, was his faith that was lived out loud so audaciously. I loved his daughter, Tammy’s, remarks on her FB page as they knew his time of home going could be close. Her words reminded me of our words with my Sweetheart – our faith was so strong for a miracle any time, but we also wouldn’t hold him back from his eternal reward for anything, if that was God’s plan.
Tammy’s words: “I’m never on FB anymore but needed to make sure everyone knew what was happening with everyone’s favorite unconventional Pastor Royce Milton Beckett 😉 God can do anything and we are still asking for a miracle. If that’s not God’s plan, we are good with him moving onto the glorious reward of being with Jesus forever. Because of our hope in the Lord, it will only be a “See you soon, Dad”! He is quite a character and would have loved to ask you a million questions about who you are and, mostly, if you knew Jesus as your personal Savior. That was the most important question he always asked people after chatting with them. At times I would get aggravated with him about being too forward so quickly, and he would say “I may never meet them again, so I have to ask while I can.” He was having a really bad day on Mother’s Day, and was so confused and disoriented, but in the middle of the delusions, he told me that Jesus was coming soon and we needed to share His love and message of salvation with everyone! So today in honor of my Daddy, would you please look up….. talk to Jesus about your life and His plan for you. Sing praises to our awesome God and lift your hands high in praise as he would if he could. Love you all.
