My deepest condolence to my family of John C. Machado; his wife dulce, his children; never is one ready for a time as this; I give my God thanks for lending John to us; I was able to see John three days before his passing, he and Jezerae were at my home; now as I think back, I see how God was preparing him; although, didn't know it at the time, as we talked, he said "we know not what tomorrow is going to bring" "tomorrow is not promised to us" he said, I'm ready whenever God wants to take me home, every time I think of him I remember him with a smile on his face; always seem strengthful and happy, so full of life, hard-working, busy, very active in the Lord's vineyard, not considering his health condition; I would tell him "John, rest" a mom's thing, and he would say "I will work until the Lord calls me home" or "permits me" and he did till the end, like he had no health condition, but his Faith, and Trust was fully in God, and God Honours Faith; The Lord said: Blessed are those who Trust in Him; God is Faithful to His Word, and I was able to see God at work in him; John told me just months ago, I'm asking God for a petition before he takes me home; and God did answer his petition, because he called me and cried that God had did a miracle; John was a good dad and a Blessed son to me, a very generous soul, loving and giving, very considerate of others before himself; I think God for these Blessed memories. Ecclesiastes 3:1-4.... To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the Heaven.... A time to be born, and a time to die.... A time to weep, and a time to laugh.... I texted him at 10:40 p.m. just before his passing; and he texted me back, and said, good night, love you; of course, not knowing at the time; it was time to rest; We'll miss you mijo; Love you. King David said; He will not come to me, but I will go to him. Love Mom ♥️
