Today I will remember a sweet boy. I will think about his family. I will not forget.
I will ask God to be with them as they mourn the loss of their child; to give them comfort now and always. I will ask God to take their child with open arms and show him the love he has grown to know through his Mommy and Daddy.
I will also pray to God to be with another mother who is struggling with the illness of her own child. I will ask God to heal his heart so that he may live a full, happy life and continue to bring his family such joy.
Today I will give thanks for my many blessings. Like my baby girl and sweet boy. Or my husband and his children.
I will thank God for what he has given me and what he continues to do for me everyday.
Today, I will be stronger.
I will lift my head up and give myself to God; to protect me, watch over me and be with me.
This I need to do… for myself and my family.
(For what it’s worth, I try not to talk about religion much on this blog. I needed to say this, for me.)
