The year Tevin was diagnosed with adrenoleukodystrophy, his Easter speech was titled The Message.
I have a message
A message of cheer
Christ Jesus arose
Glad Easter is here!
As Tevin's condition worsened, he got many visitors. At this point he had lost his vision, but not his ability to speak. Whenever he sensed a new person in the room, he would ask, "Can I tell them my message?" I always answered yes. Then he would proceed to tell them his Easter speech. This was absolutely amazing because at this time he had trouble remembering my name and other personal facts about himself. However, Tevin at the age of six had no reservations about sharing the gospel of Jesus
Christ with everyone in which he came in contact.
Sometimes we are allowed to go through certain situations to encourage and bless others. It is not always about us and what we may be feeling as we are going through. As Christians we are designed and called to tell everyone we meet about Jesus Christ.
