As I read your blog,...And I am so grateful for you. As I read your blog, I thought of something that happened to me recently. Our little girl is in Heaven today. She lived less than one day. We were in West Texas at the time and the issues she was born with required surgery by a specialist. Shortly after birth she was taken to San Antonio for immediate surgery. My husband went there to be with her. Because of her condition, I could touch her before she left but I never held her in my arms. She survived surgery, but died a little later. They let my husband hold her for a while after she was gone. For years I felt so bad that I didn’t get to hold her. She would have been 40 this month. Several months ago, I was thinking about that time and still so sad about not getting to hold her. All of a sudden it was like a still sweet feeling came over Me and I felt God’s love so strong and I realized… I held her…closer than anyone held her. For 9 1/2 months, I held her. She heard my heartbeat. She knew me and I kept her secure and warm. How precious is a God who cares enough to comfort your heart in a moment like this. So very grateful! And I WILL see Linsey again. God bless you and yours!
