Comfort

February 2, 2013 · 1 Comment

I have tried to write this post several times tonight. My heart is full and emotions are raw. Sometimes your broken heart that has been molded with God’s love still seeps through the joy that God provides.

I have had three separate friends share with me in the last week of a mother losing her child. A baby, a miscarriage, a stillbirth, a loss. Each and every time I hear about someone who lost their baby, my heart just hurts for them. I know what it feels like to lose a part of you that can never be replaced. The emotions you will face the days and years ahead. As I have said in previous posts I wish I could take your pain away. I will pray for you.

I really have never shared before the comments that were said to me when I lost my baby. Innocent comments from people who just didn’t know what to say but they still hurt. I didn’t share because they weren’t trying to hurt me they were trying to help. One of the comments that hurt the most was you will have another baby. I realized they were just trying to offer understanding and comfort to me.

As I hear of these sweet mama’s who have lost their babies this week, I know someone will innocently say those words to you. I pray that you know their intentions are to be comforting. I pray that the ones who don’t know what to say to understand just being there with nothing to say is comforting.

When your pregnant, no matter how far along you are, and you lose a baby through miscarriage, stillbirth, and even early infant death, we already fell in love. The moment you know your having a baby, you fall in love, before you even meet.

We already fell in love with our baby and that is irreplaceable.

To comfort others is to know love.

    This post seriously has me in tears. Partly because I have lost a child and partly because I am currently pregnant. Unfortunately, there’s nothing no one can say or do to make you feel better or make the pain go away. But I promise that it gets easier and you will find happiness again. Prayer is a blessing and saves.

    Happy Monday Girly!

Chalkola + Birthday

We celebrated our sweet girl turning 12 years old! She loves all things horses, rainbows, and farm animals. I loved being able to spoil her with her favorites for the day. Riding horses, horse and rainbow cake, family time, pizza, and this adorable Chalkola Chalkboard. I am not an artist but the Chalkola brand chalk […]

His Love

This world is full of sorrow and suffering and death. But thankfully, this world isn’t it for us. Because of God’s greatest gift of salvation, we have the hope of the world to come, where there is no suffering and peace surpasses everything.  The storms that are raging and crashing all around us….will stop. That sickness […]
