The past couple days I have been so sad and missing her so much.... and the only time when I felt peace come back was when I was down at the alter praying at church. " He will send a spirit with joy and peace within, just hold on for the storm is almost over" ( from a church song, I Know the Man) Its so hard to remember to pray and cry out to him until we really need to lean on him;.... but everyone has a moment in there day where they are not to busy with life to get down and pray.... me and Travis used to not pray... but Chloe was born and we need the Lord to help us and we started to pray... and we changed and we became closer to God all by praying.
I am sorry if I type to much and get off sentence easy, I cant help it.. I Just want everyone who reads this and who knows me that the Lord is truly helping and and moving in my life. We have an anazing and supportive church we go to and I want everyone who reads this blog , who is finding the Lord though us to know to just pray and the Lord is always with you and he loves the Children and I know that Chloe as been held in the arms of Jesus and she gets to run around and play and I take so much comfort in that. Chloe was born to this earth with the Lords will in mind and she left this earth with us praying for the Lords will to be done. Chloe had a perfect life... That is why she was made too perfect for this world, with her skin and body as fragile as it was... Heaven is the only place she can be safe so that her skin doesn't get hurt. "God made her for heaven"
A Poem written by Bro. Micheal Leger. ( He also preached at Chloe's Service, and preaches at the church we go to! He wrote and read this poem for Chloe, at her service )
God made you for Heaven,
So with us, you couldn't stay.
As He formed you with His gentle hand,
He had a plan all along the way.
He knew He had lots of Children
To play while the Angels would sing
But He didn't have any little children
With beautiful butterfly wings.
So the doctors delivered the news
And we took it as such a surprise
But God in Heaven was smiling
As bitter tears were filling our eyes
God made you for heaven
Not to grow in this life gone wrong
You were too sweet and precious
To stay here on earth too long
You were a sweet lil butterfly baby
Comforted by mommy's dear love
But now you're with God forever
To wear your bright wings up above
It wasn't a disease or imperfection,
You weren't a just sick little girl,
God just made you for heaven,
Cause you were too perfect for this world.
-Bro. Micheal Leger-
What an amazing poem! So beautiful so true. Megan you are right I should not thank you and Travis for restoring my faith I should thank God for using you & Travis and for igniting my spirit the minute I looked into your butterflies eyes. However I thank you for Sharing your precious doll baby with the world! Though all of this has been our Lords will, we as humans can still choose to listen to God and except his Holy spirit or we can choose our own paths of bitterness. So thank you for choosing to follow the Lord even in the darkest hour for any parent. You still chose to give thanks to our God & proclaim his saving grace with us. You are most certainly right it is prayer that we grow closer with God. Thank you again and May the Lord continue to bless you & Travis always.

Megan,
ReplyDeleteThat is the most beautiful thing that I have ever read. I'm lost for the right words. Chloe is a beautiful butterfly. I'm deeply saddened for your loss. I have been brought into this EB community thru Jessica & Jax. They, along w/her family, are friends of mine. You are all so thoughtful & compassionate. The best Mommies that I have ever met. I'm speechless....just know that you & your family are in my prayers. I will never forget Chloe or any of these amazing lil butterflies!!!!!!
