About Me

IN MEMORY OF OUR BELOVED COLLY There is not a moment in my day that I am not thinking of you. I love you my beautiful son and I will miss you till the day I see you again. My heart burns in pain without you here.Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy took Collin's life in a split second.Collin had this scripture taped all around our home. Romans 12:1-2 “Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God-this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is-his good, pleasing perfect will. MY NEPHEW HAYDEN RHYS CHITTICK My Name Is Collin Chittick and I am a Christian “God made me with a purpose in my life. I am on earth for a divine reason. Where as most people go through life either living moment-to-moment or living for the moment, I sense a higher calling. I will not spend my life beating the air. Therefore I am going to seek my biblically based purpose for living. I will strive before God to be sure that all that I do in my life falls under the umbrella of this statement. To live with purpose and vision for eternal goals. My purpose in life is to love the Lord with all my heart and soul. To put him first in everything I do in my life. I care very much about one person in my life. She has helped me to build my faith. She has been there every time I needed her and I am thankful. I am also planning on spreading the word of God to the unreached. There are many people who need to hear the word of God.” Most of all, the reason I praise God for everyday is for his Son, Jesus Christ. God is a loving, caring God. His works are amazing, and his miracles are breathtaking. To know, that no matter what I do wrong as a Christian, God will always forgive me, is a wonderful thing. I thank the Lord for the many blessings I have received. I know that in the future, God will continue to bless me more than I deserve. I love the Lord my God with all my heart and I thank him for a second chance.” Collin Rhys Chittick Collin gave this testimony to his adult decipleship class two weeks before he died.

My Interests

"I want to be remembered in numerous ways. I want people to know who I was. When I die, I want the people of the future to know that I had made a difference. I plan on making that difference in the near future. Give it a little time and my life on earth would be worth it. I want to make a difference in somebody's life. Even if it's a small difference. I want to be noticed. To make a difference in a person's life is one of the greatest deeds you can perform. To make somebody feel good about themselves should make you feel good about yourself. To make a buddy happy should make you happy. All of these things are good traits of a good person. I am not saying there are bad people, I am just saying that if you make the right decisions in life, good things will come". Collin's ends it with this quote. " Your preferences in this life will determine your pleasures in the next life"Collin wrote this 2 years before he died. He never knew the difference that he Had made in so many peoples lives. I imagine that when he entered the gates of Heaven..The Lord said to Collin "JOB WELL DONE." We know that our Colly has passed from Death to Life because he has LOVED. 1John 3:14

I am convinced that love is the most durable power in the world. It is not an expression of impractical idealism, but of practical realism. Far from being the pious injunction of a Utopian dreamer, love is an absolute necessity for the survival of our civilization. To return hate for hate does nothing but intensify the existence of evil in the universe. Someone must have sense enough and religion enough to cut off the chain of hate and evil, and this can only be done through love. ----Martin Luther King, Jr., 1957

A Tribute to our Son Collin Rhys Chittick April 17, 1986 -July 8, 2002Words borrowed from Build Me A SonGeneral Douglas A. MacArthurYou built us a son, O Lord, who was strong enough to know when he was weak, and brave enough to face himself when he was afraid; one who was proud and unbending in honest defeat, and humble and gentle in victory. You built us a son whose wishes did not take the place of deeds; a son who knew Thee- and that to know himself was the foundation stone of knowledge. You lead him, we prayed, not in the path of ease and comfort, but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenge. Here, you let him learn to stand up in the storm; here, you let him learn compassion for those who fall. You built us a son whose heart was clear, whose goals were high; a son who mastered himself before he seeked to master other men; one who learned to laugh, yet never forgot how to weep; one who reached into the future, yet never forgot the past. And after all these things were his, and, we prayed, you gave to him enough of a sense of humor, so that he may always be serious, yet never take himself too seriously. You gave him humility, so that he always remembered the simplicity of true greatness, the open mind of true wisdom, the meekness of true strength. And now we, his father and mother, dare to whisper, "We have not lived in vain". Collin taught us all that you can make a difference in someone’s life, not by the things you have but by what you give of yourself. Be it a smile, a kind word, an honest heart or a compliment, it is the simple act of caring and loving that we all need. Collin was a loving young man and proud of his relationship with God - for that he will always be remembered. We will miss Collin forever but he will always be a shining light in our hearts.MY BROTHERS AND SISTERDAYN AND KERI MY NANNY AND KAYAME AND MY POPPY
