<font size="4">This is a message thata 12yr old wrote our Pastor Jimmy two days after his mother was killed by her abusive boyfriend last week. <span style="font-size: 14pt">They moved away from the Chattanooga area a few years ago, but kept in occasional contact. </span></font><p class="ecxMsoTitle"><span style="font-size: 14pt">It is hard to read, not because of the bad spelling, but the content makes you want to grab these women-beaters by the ears and....well, I wont go there. </span></p><p class="ecxMsoTitle"><span style="font-size: 14pt">Pastor Jimmy will be performing the funeral this week. </span><span style="font-size: 14pt">Please keep Matt and his younger sister and 88 yr old grandfather in prayer. </span></p><p class="ecxMsoTitle"><span style="font-size: 14pt" /></p><p class="ecxMsoTitle"><span style="font-size: 14pt"><font size="2">(FYI- This was re-written with all spelling, grammar, and punctuation as it was received from this young boy)</font></span></p><p class="ecxMsoTitle"><span style="font-size: 14pt">"Matt’s Texts"</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-align: center" align="center"><span style="font-size: 14pt">Jimmy this is Matt. We got no computer but granddad has a text-sending phone. I type slow and spell very bad. Thank you for calling on the phone. You are silly. You make us laugh. I want to be like you. Happy because you know Jesus. I think Jesus could be mad at me. May I talk to you about it. I miss you Kenny jarrod Kathy. Yu made us feel safe all the time. I hated moving and Ronnie never left us go to church here. He said it was for weak and stupid people. He is stupid. He hurt my mom. He like beer more than us. I know mom got mad at you and Kenny but she wasn’t really mad. It was Ronnie didn’t like you cuse you told her to put him in jail cuse he was mean to us all the time. Thank you for trying to help us. I think God mad maybe. Ronnie and mom fought every week. she be happy for like too days then he be mean rest of week and called her real bad names. So bad I better not tell you since you the church man. I know I was the man of the house. I soppose too take care of mom and sis. The last time Ronnie got mad at mom they was in there room. I heard mom yell for help. I tried to get in door and I had my football helmet on but I couldn’t. But mom told me I was ok. So I went to bed. If I did not go to bed I could have helped mom. Mom was ok and was going to come home from hospital but she had a vein break in her brain and died. I pray and sis prayed too. We ask Jesus to bring mom home to us but Jesus never showed up. You think us not going to church made Jesus mad? You said mom is in heaven with Jesus. Why did Jesus wait till now to come? I not mad at Jesus but I am at Ronnie. Granddad said we will go to church now on and maybe even drive there. I can’t spell your town. I hope you will tell Jesus I am not mad. I know mom is safe now like you said. I know you and Kenny wanted to help her be safe. She did not listen to you or granddad. Tell Jesus to tell mom we are doing Good. Granddad loves us and we got our own room. I see you when you get here. You will make me laugh. I glad you going to take mom spirit to Jesus. I be strong. Cuse I got to be a man now. Will you help me know how to be a good man with Jesus like you are. I want to help other kids mom to be safe an have nice boyfriend. We love you jimmy. Don’t forget to tell jesus I a sorry I did not say the right prayers. I glad mom is happy because I don’t think she was happy on earth. Love You. You are a man who keep people safe. I want to do that too. I see you later. I afraid to go to school.

Well that was overload. I'd all but forgotten about my stepsister being beaten to death by her husband with a brick in Indiana about 16 yrs ago.
They only had a small daughter too young to remember what happened, thank God!
He served 6 yrs.!!
There are stories I'm sure a lot of us need to put in the past!
 
i have read this a couple times now,i have visted crumb donors web site,i thank GOD for people like this, that take heart to teach the gospel,for a young child to have to go through that,this young boys text message has touched my heart,GOD BLESS HIM AND HIS FAMILY
 
That is sad Spur and also makes me boil. I saw alot of this in my lifetime and always had to really put the brakes on to keep from going overboard. Thanks for posting this and I hpe and pray that the little fella finds peace in his lifetime.
