How could things go on when the world has come to an end?
How could I go on in this void?
How could one person, not very big, leave an emptyness that was galaxy-wide?!

To All Parents
"I'll lend you for a little time a child of Mine," He said,
"For you to love the while she lives and mourn for when she's dead.
It may be six or seven years, or even twenty-two or three,
But will you, till I call her back, take care of her for me?
She'll bring her charms to gladden you, and should her stay be brief,
You'll have her lovely memories as solace for your grief.
I cannot promise she will stay, since all from earth return,
But there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn,
I've looked the wide world over in My search for teachers true,
And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes I have selected you.
Now will you give her all your love, nor think the labor vain,
Nor hate Me when I come to call to take her back again?"
I fancied that I heard them say, "Dear Lord, thy will be done!
For all the joy thy child shall bring, the risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter her with tenderness, we'll love her while we may,
And for the happiness we've known, forever grateful stay;
But should the angels call for her much sooner than we've planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand."

Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted"
Matthew 5:5



Fly
Fly, fly little wing
Fly beyond imagining
The softest cloud, the whitest dove
Upon the wind of heaven's door
Past the planets and the stars
Leave this lonely world or ours
Escape the sorrow and the pain
And fly again
Fly, fly precious one
Your endless journey has begun
Take your gentle happiness
Far too beautiful for this
Cross over to the other shore
There is peace forevermore
But hold this memory bittersweet
Until we meet
Fly, fly do not fear
Don't waste a breath, don't shed a tear
Your heart is pure, your soul is free
Be on your way, don't wait for me
Above the universe you'll climb
On beyond the hands of time
The moon will rise, the sun will set
But I won't forget
Fly, fly little wing
Fly where only angels sing
Fly away, the time is right
Go now, find the light
Celine Dion-Falling into You


But Jesus called the children to him and said,
"Let the little children come to me,
and do not hinder them,
for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
I tell you the truth,
anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a child
will never enter it."
Luke 18:16&17



Angel of God
Angel of God
my guardian dear
to whom God's love commits me here;
ever this day be at my side,
to light and guard,
to rule and guide.
Amen


Little Angels
When God calls little children
to dwell with Him above,
We mortals sometimes question
the wisdom of His love.
For no heartache compares
with the death of one small child
who does so much to make our world
seem wonderful and mild.
Perhaps God tires of calling
the aged to His fold
so he picks a rosebud
before it can grow old.
God knows how much we need them
and so he takes but a few
to make the land of Heaven
more beautiful to view.
Believing this is difficult
still some how we must try.
The saddest word mankind knows
will always be "Goodbye."
So when a little child departs
we who are left behind
must realize God loves children
Angels are hard to find.


I will not forget you...
I have carved you
on the palm of my hand
Isaiah 49:16



Her Journey's Just Begun
Don't think of her as gone away..
her journey's just begun,
life holds so many facets..
this earth is only one..
Just think of her as resting
from the sorrow and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days or years.
Think how she must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but saddness
can really pass away.
And think of her as living
in the hearts of those she touched..
for nothing loved is ever lost..
and she was loved so much.
By:E. Brennaman
