Still Carrying You

December 9, 2010 by Tracey 5 Comments

Carrying you in my womb taught us more about the grace and goodness of God than any other event in our lives thus far.

We knew the breaths you took were only temporary, that entering the world just before dawn on that cold December morning would mean your end was near.

The moments we spent together were brief; your tiny body was already still, your precious spirit already with God.

I never carried you in my arms, but I still carry you in my heart.

Our Angel

    Oh Tracey, I'm so sorry. I have never known that kind of pain… But what a blessing to know God's love and grace even through something so difficult.
    The Lord bless you.

    Tears fill my eyes everytime December 9th rolls around remembering Angel and knowing that Clay and Angel are friends in Heaven. What a wonderful time that will be when we are in Heaven together.

    Oh Tracey, I am so very sorry!! Your words are beautiful, and I have no words to comfort. Tears are filling my eyes for your sorrow, but my spirit is rejoicing that your precious little one is with ours with their Savior! We also have one with God ~ we miscarried in 2003, and, you are so right, that precious little one will forever be carried in my heart and memory. Praying for the Lord's special comfort to surround you today…may the hope that we have keep you until you see your little one again… *Psalm 119:49-50*
