WE THOUGHT WE HAD A LIFETIME, BUT GOD HAD OTHER PLANS, YOU WERE TOO GOOD FOR THIS COLD COLD WORLD WE WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER
Sorry for the loss of your baby. Death is not something that God had intended for Amir. There is a hope of a resurrection for Amir. In the Bible Jesus performed a resurrection of a little girl and of a widow son. Jesus will do this again on a larger scale. Please read John 5:28,29; Psalms 37:11. I will continue to pray for you and your family. Once again I’m so sorry for your loss
My heart goes out to the entire family. Amir was such a cutie. I am praying for you all. May God give you the strength you need. Sending love your way.
Praying for your family during this time Rowena.God will keep you
Our condolences to you and your family… May the lord continue to bless you during this difficult time..✝️

Little Angels
When God calls little children
to dwell with him above,
We mortals always question
the wisdom of his love.
For no heartache compares with
the death of one small child
Who does so much to make this world
seem wonderful and mild.
Perhaps God tires always calling
the aged to his fold
and so he picks a rosebud
before it can grow old.
God knows how much we need them
and so he takes but a few
To make the land of heaven
more beautiful to view.
Believing this is difficult
still somehow we must try
The saddest word that mankind knows
will always be “Goodbye”.
And so when little ones depart
we who are left behind
Must realize how much God loves children
for angels are hard to find.
