Sixteen Year Ago Child Adbucted!

GoodThoughts

A little more that 16 years ago a close friend had his son adbucted by a strange just blocks from his home. It was a Sunday night with no school on Monday so there went to the local gas station to pick up a video and on the way home a sick, sick person grabbed Jacob and he has never been seen since. My middle daughter was close in age to Jacob and we had been with the family just a couple of weeks before it happened. Say a little prayer for children if you don't mind. If you don't pray that is ok.


O Lord! Make this youth radiant, and confer Thy bounty upon this poor creature. Bestow upon him knowledge, grant him added strength at the break of every morn and guard him within the shelter of Thy protection so that he may be freed from error, may devote himself to the service of Thy Cause, may guide the wayward, lead the hapless, free the captives and awaken the heedless, that all may be blessed with Thy remembrance and praise. Thou art the Mighty and the Powerful.

This is not some attempt to be funny. I knew Jacob very well. I knew his family before Jacob was born. I was invited to his brother and two sisters weddings. His mom and dad attended my children's high school graduation parties.

He was eleven. Hard to believe someone could do that to an eleven-yr-old child.

I assume that being born 16 years ago is a trait that most people your age share.

Being able to laugh at a funeral is one of the few things that can help preserve a man's sanity.
