But Jesus called them to Him and said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God.” Luke 18:16

 

No one can truly measure the pain and brokenness of a parent who loses a young child. They carry within them the void of that child’s life. Repeated thoughts of wishful memories playout, only to feel heartache and sadness with the daily emptiness they feel.

 

If there is any temporary relief of pain, its to know that your sweet child is in the holy presence of Jesus Christ. No more pain, no more sickness, only a transformed spirit wrapped within the love of Christ. Although their time was short lived, their life was not outside God’s plan. And through your loss, God has paved a difficult but purposeful journey for your life. Your heart loves like no other.  You are a gift and a blessing to those who know you and are impacted by your life.

 

“The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves such as have a contrite spirit.” Psalm 34:18

 

The same God who has embraced your child is the same God who lives inside your heart. Through your devotion to Him, your love is passed through the Father, to your precious child. Stand firm on the promises of God that He will go with you until you are reunited with your loved one in Heaven! God bless!
