Many of you have asked about Eduardo Aracama’s daughter, the sole survivor in an automobile accident on the roads between Asunción, Paraguay and Mendoza, Argentina.
No one at such a young age should have to attend the funeral service f
or both her parents and both her brothers. It just seems unbearable. How is this young girl coping with life without her immediate family. At first she wasn’t told as she lay in critical condition in an Argentine hospital. They didn’t want to “upset her anymore than she already was.” They “wanted her to heal and come out of intensive care.” Heal, she did, and when she was given the news, she was a bit saddened. Why wasn’t she told before? Her response? “I am not worried about my mother and father and two brothers. They are in heaven. It’s me I am worried about. I am still here on earth and that means that my mission is not over. I haven’t accomplished all that God wants me to do. My parents have and they are with him. I have more time on earth and I need to be engaged in His plan for me.”
What I am learing is that Dámaris, 13 years of age, had learned a huge lesson that most don’t understand until they are much older. She had her priorities in order. The years that her parents gave in servie to the Lord were done. Her brothers, even though didn’t live to 25, what they did for Christ is the only thing that will last in eternity. Yes, Dámaris is gong through the struggles that are natural, she is an inspiration to many to see that treasure is layed in heaven. That what we do here on earth will all fade away if it isn’t done for the Kingdom. My prayer is that as you read this, you will examine your life. Just come before the throne of grace and renew your passion in using the gifts God has given you and use them for things that will last.
Blessings, hugs and appreciation for your part on our team.
