It’s Monday, as I write this. But today marks a sad day that happened 14 years ago. It was sad for those who had to say goodbye. But my guess is, it was a glorious day for one person. And it was a day that added to a chain of days I’d watched that inspired me to write a song about the Tuesday blessings that left too soon. Not the day of the week. No, it was about a little girl named Tuesday. Here’s the song…
“Tuesday blessings” doesn’t truly cover the life of a little girl.
But, in the video, you can see what a cute, little fighter she was. And the struggles her family went through brought about blessings they still might not fully realize.
Because nobody can fully understand what transformations might take place in the heart during a tragedy like this. But I DO know (as others I respect know) that those transformations can have eternal consequences when you’re willing.
My hope is that anyone who has to suffer the loss of a little one, like this special little girl, will remember (or discover) that this life is a snippet. You enjoy only a fraction of life here on Earth. And there’s a forever life beyond this planet. But it’s only for those who choose it.
The little girl in the video never reached the age of accountability. So, she soared to Heaven when she died. But if you’re already past that age, you’ve got a serious decision to make. Choose wisely.
Remember Tuesday
Years are short, and days are long…
And we forget the time when lives go wrong,
But we will remember…we’ll remember Tuesday.
Precious plans and hopes and dreams
Fade away like evening’s last sunbeams,
But we will remember…we’ll remember Tuesday.
Tuesday…a life gone by…so few days…
Tuesday…we will rejoice your new days.
Years may pass, and dreams may fade,
And we’ll forget the desperate way we prayed,
But we will remember…we’ll remember Tuesday.
Tuesday…a life gone by…so few days…
Tuesday…we will rejoice your new days.
