Love Hurts

 Thinking of the Russcher family tonight
and offer our thoughts, prayers and support
as they mourn the loss of a sweet, precious baby in the family.






I'm reminded of a song by Natalie Grant,
find it on iTunes, it is called "Held".
It is a beautiful, gut wrenching, soul stirring reminder
that when the unspeakable happens,
and it does and will~
that we are not alone.
 
..."Two months is, too little,
they let him go, they had no sudden healing.
To think that, Providence would
take a child from his mother
while she prayed, is appalling.
Who told us we'd be rescued,
what is changed and why should we be saved~
from nightmares?
We're asking why this happened
to us, who have died to this.
It's unfair.
This is what it means, to be held
when the sacred is torn from your life, and you survive.
This is what it is, to be loved
and to know that the promise was: when everything fell~
we'd be held..."
