Our family is grieving the loss of a precious niece or nephew (we don’t know yet) this morning. At 36 weeks in utero they went straight from the safety of their mother ‘s womb to their heavenly Father’s arms. Yet this doesn’t feel safe to us. While this loved child is alive and well with Jesus this very minute, we are devastated.
Praying for the parents as they greet their child this morning only to have to bury them. I cannot think of a more difficult task. Praying for the 2 older brothers and 1 older sister. Praying for the grandparents on the road to see them right now. And the great grandparents waiting at home.
Pray with us this morning.
**It’s a he. A precious baby boy. Mama is healthy.**
My heart is breaking at this tragic news! We will be praying!
Many tears have been shed this morning by cousins young and old as we grieve this loss. We know we serve a mighty God and our hope is in Him. Thank you for sharing this post and know that we too are kneeling at the throne of grace and asking for His peace and comfort for all those touched by this precious little life.
We’re praying.
We love you.
Jen,
Been praying since your mom told me this morning. Such grief.
And your post on Tee is beautiful. Can picture those huge eyes as they close all sleepy-like. Your prayers for him express your love for Jesus. Will be amazing to see what He does with this young life “when he is bigger”.
Love to you!
Candy
P.S. My “first” is living with us this summer– all bigger–21!
We are crying and grieving here too. And all the more – we are praying. God keep the hearts of our family steadfastly fixed on You, and comfort them as only a Comforter can. Our love to you and to our cousins.
Praying for your sweet family. There is no deeper loss than that of a precious child you have dreams for and no answers as to why they don’t get to live life alongside of us. Praying that as they drag the feet of their heart, trying to move forward that God would allow them to grieve and celebrate their short life. This task is impossible without the love and guidance of our Lord. much love to you friend.
Oh, tearing up and saying a prayer right now. That sweet boy has already ministered to me… after a “hard” day I’m reminded again of how precious each second with my baby girl is. May He bring comfort and counsel to your whole family.
Jenny, I am so sorry. I will pray.
