Just a little backstory....

Sunday August 7, 2011 at 9 months pregnant, My husband James and I arrived at the Hospital in anticipation of my inducement. Nathan was to be born the following day. Within 25 minutes we were given the shattering news that Nathan had passed away. My pregnancy was miraculous with no complications. How could this be?
Nathan was delivered Monday August 8, 2011. He was a beautiful little butterball weighing 8 pounds 12 ounces and measuring 20.5 inches long. With no Earthly reason for His passing, I created this blog with hope and purpose.

Sweet Sweet Peace

In Sunday's sermon it was said.." There is a big difference between something being hard to understand, and something being hidden from you"

This spoke loudly to me, and I immediately thought about Nathan. It may be hard to understand, but God's peace and grace and love, have not been hidden from me.

Yesterday Nathan would have been 18 months old, and I thought about those words and for the first time a weight was lifted and I was not sad. In fact I was not sad all day long. I thought about Nathan all day of course, but it was peaceful, and I had a grateful heart. Thank you Holy Spirit. Even though I don't understand..God never hides his blessings from me.

His blessings are not always what i anticipate. His blessings are often what I need instead. A grateful heart. A life of contentment. Peace beyond understanding. These things hold the most value to me. And while I miss my boy, the ache was filled with peace. Sweet sweet peace.
