The thing I have been fearing the most and hoping didnt happen while I was here did. One of the lil babys lost her battle here on earth and his now being held by our lord and savior. She has been in and out of the hostipal with different health problems, with pneumonia, TB and problomes with HIV. Her name will now be added to the memioral wall here and she will never be forgeten.
Only a baby's grave-
A foot or Two at most,
Of tear-soaked earth, But a loving God
knows what the little grave cost.
Only a baby's life-
Brief as a perfumed kiss,
So quickly it goes,
But our Father knows
We are nearer to Him for this.
please pray for the Bo'Ma who took care of her and help them cope with this loss
That's so sad, sorry to hear that. She's in a better place now. Thoughts and prayers!
ReplyDeleteJess,
ReplyDeleteI can't even imagine how hard that has to be. I'm sure it brings back alot of memories for you with Lyndsey. If anyone knows how it feels, it's you & your family. I am going to put this on the church prayer line so your Trinity family can keep you and the rest of those caring for the kiddos in their prayers. Love you and miss you!

I'm sure it has to be hard to go from such a high on Friday with an adoption to a low on Saturday of losing a child. We are praying for you and the staff as they work through this loss and get ready for a funeral with their last good byes. Remember God has you wrapped in his arms at this time.
ReplyDeleteLove, Mom
Jessica,
ReplyDeleteI've been catching up on your blog and have been touched by your experiences! The time you are spending with these children is precious Jesus-time. Remember how tenderly Jesus loves the children - and there you are serving their needs. May God bless you with strength, insight, kindness, and patience. I look forward to hearing more from you upon your return! Stay in The Word!
