Held

This is an incredibly beautiful song. It is called Held by Natalie Grant. It was sent to me on a CD that my niece made for me which she labeled "Songs for grieving". It was the first song on it and I have played it so very many times. The words touch anyone who has experienced the death of a child. Thank you, Christina.

I don't think people realize have even the little things they do or say can have such a huge positive impact on someone who is grieving the death of their child.

Thank you to so many other friends who continue to walk with me/us in this journey.

HELD

"To think that providence would take a child from its mother while she prays...is appalling. ...

This is how it feels when the sacred is torn from your life and your survive."
