Loosing such a precious little one. I know that in your sorrow, there is joy as we know it's not the last time we'll see our loved ones. God said we cry when they're born and rejoice when they die. He know's that in the end it's the most amazing thing to step into his presence and he says "Welcome home my child, Welcome home!" <br><br><br>I just lost my mom and my dad 1 yr, 2 days and 16 hours before her. Our hearts break, our hearts rejoice, we laugh and we cry. We miss her and want her back and then say "Nah...why would anyone want to come back to here". We know that God is the most faithful comforter we know and he will comfort you in your loss as he is in our's. As much as we miss mom and dad we know that one day soon, as you, we will be welcomed by them when we enter into the gates of heaven. Isaiah 64:4Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
