Bobby's Story in Pictures.

In Memory of Bobby, who has changed our lives forever. 

You call me out upon the waters


The great unknown where feet may fail


And there I find You in the mystery


In oceans deep


My faith will stand


And I will call upon Your name


And keep my eyes above the waves


When oceans rise


My soul will rest in Your embrace


For I am Yours and You are mine



Your grace abounds in deepest waters


Your sovereign hand


Will be my guide


Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me


You've never failed and You won't start now



So I will call upon Your name


And keep my eyes above the waves


When oceans rise


My soul will rest in Your embrace


For I am Yours and You are mine


Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders


Let me walk upon the waters


Wherever You would call me


Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander


And my faith will be made stronger

In the presence of my Savior

-Hillsong, Oceans 


We picked this song to be sung at Bobby's burial and it only seemed fitting to share his life in pictures with the lyrics because of the truth it has pointed us towards in the midst of our suffering. 

Romans 5:1-5 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit,who has been given to us.

You probably don't remember me, but we met at Caleb and Kristen's wedding.
I leaned about Bobby's little life through Kristen, and I just wanted to tell you, that I'm praying for you. I was pregnant at the same time, and often when I look at my newborn boy Jade, Bobby comes to mind and I pray for you, your husband and children! Thank you for sharing your story, Bobby's story.
I pray for the Lord to fill your heart and mind with peace, to give you the words to say, and to sweeten your memories. <3
