An Inspirational Message from Pat O'Donnell

Loss of aChild
Love Has Found A Home
by Pat O'Donnell [Edited by Susan Perez]

"Haven of Hope," http://www.haven-of-hope.com 

Perhaps…

Perhaps Love has found a home and it rests with us. Most of the time we can answer the Who, When, How, What and Where in regards to our child and their death. The 'Who' is your child and their name, age, gender and the unique qualities that make them so very special. The 'Who' is the splendid Soul that is there while we are here. . . more

 

I Never Knew...

I never knew memories would be painful to my heart
Until the day I lost you and my world was torn apart

Living on those memories is all that's left of you
My painful daily reminder that what I live is true

Each new memory in my life will never include you
Old memories bittersweet... will now just have to due

Till the day I leave this Earth, and see your shining face
To finally hug and hold you, and share a warm embrace

That day when I do join you within the heavens light
I will hold you oh so tightly, my soul will take full flight

I will smile as if I'm giddy, my heart will race a million miles
As I realize right then and there, this wait was all worthwhile

We will leave this earthly planet and travel to the stars
Leave behind my sorrow, and all my earthly scars

Yes happiness awaits me just beyond, not far away
For I know I will be with you... on one very special day

"Today Jesus is alive and well;
with God in heaven He does dwell;
one day HE will return for you and me;
what a glorious day that will be"
~Quote by Glenna

"Today a New Beginning"

Today start with a new beginning
Getting rid of doubts and fears
Standing tall with faith and courage
Giving Jesus all heartache and tears.

Negative thoughts you leave behind
Stress and worry will disappear
New talents we are sure to find
Today, Jesus makes all things clear.


Serving Jesus should be the ultimate goal
He forgives all sin and makes us whole
Our lives will never be the same
Today give praise and glory to His name.

Rest assured that Jesus will always keep
Every promise He has made to us
Today, believe and pray thanking Him
And never cease to trust.

"His Journey's Just Begun"


Don't think of him as gone away
His journey's just begun,
Life holds so many facets...
This earth is only one...
Just think of him as resting
From the sorrows and the tears
In a place of warmth and comfort
Where there are no days and years.
Think how he must be wishing
That we could know today
How nothing but our sadness
Can really pass away.
And think of him as living
In the hearts of those he touched...
For nothing loved is ever lost...
And he was loved so much.

"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
