This reflection is dedicated to all the parents who have lost a baby or child, no matter what age. These words come from Jesus’ heart. May you be comforted by Him and others who care. I think the thoughts are also fitting for anyone who has lost someone special.
Every life is so precious to me
No matter how small the child
Even the tiniest baby within its mother be
is a treasure and special “angel” in my plan.

I know every tear you’ve shed
Every dream you’ve dreamed
I hear every prayer that is said
And I know how much your heart aches.
Every dream you’ve dreamed
I hear every prayer that is said
And I know how much your heart aches.
Though many sacrifices and pain
You have endured
Know that they were not in vain
They are steps that were part of my plan.

I know the burden is hard to bear
And the pain is great
But know that I care
And I bring you comfort.
And the pain is great
But know that I care
And I bring you comfort.
Some day soon you will see
Your “angel” in my heavenly kingdom
But in the mean time be
Assured that your “angel” is safe in my arms.
Your “angel” in my heavenly kingdom
But in the mean time be
Assured that your “angel” is safe in my arms.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. –Matthew 5:4 (NIV)
