Seeing this in print makes it final for me. My child will have a headstone.....horrible, yet comforting thought for us. Right now her grave is bare, so I look forward to the day in the next weeks that I get to see this marking where her earthly body resides.
"I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the Lord has done."--Psalm 118:17
I am pretty bad a memorizing scripture, but this verse I will never forget. My mom prayed this verse over me on the evening of November 26 while she awaited news. She held it all together at home for my kids, but she repeated this verse over and over and over. She begged God to save her daughter and He did. But He did not save mine. This verse has profound meaning to me. Even in my sorrow, I hope my story will teach someone, anyone about the faithfulness of God, about His everlasting, unconditional love for His children.
