My son Michael
6-8-02 | OxfordMovement

Posted on 06/08/2002 11:06:51 AM PDT by OxfordMovement

My three year old son Michael died this morning at 3 a.m. He had been experiencing high fevers for over a month and has been in the hospital again for the last few days. The doctors were unable to determine the cause of his illness and had contacted many others to review the many tests they had run on him.

Though he received very good medical care, his little heart just stopped beating and wouldn't start again. I know he is in the arms of Jesus, but I just don't understand why this has happened.

Please pray for me, my wife, and my other children. I don't know what we are going to do. We are all so upset. The doctor at the hospital gave my wife an injection of a sedative to calm her down. I'm feeling really desperate. God gave us such a beautiful boy, and now He has taken him away from us. I don't understand. Please pray for us.

Years ago, I lost an infant, too; someday, when we see God face to face, we'll understand all of these things. But that doesn't make it any easier now. Prayers for you and your family.

May the mercy and grace of Jesus strengthen you in this terrible time; and may the peace of God which passes all understanding keep you and hold you now and forever.

I cannot imagine your pain. I have no words to comfort you, but I do know the Lord is always there. He understands that you're bewildered and confused and that you are in great pain. He will sustain you when you think you can't bear another moment. One day you will look back and see the how hand of God sustained you during this trial.

You and your family will be in my prayers. May God bless and comfort you.

God will give all involved the power and strength to understand and carry on...

God also has given all who knew and loved little Michael, the ability to celebrate the joy and happiness little Michael brought to them...

God is in control...
