I don't know what it is about this year, but I have been flooded with hearing about numerous child deaths. This is something I have a huge fear of...either when I watch a child or that it will someday happen to me. But I can't worry or fret about the future. I can only do what I am called to do in the present and that is to "not be anxious".
A month or so ago (probably a little longer), yet another child I knew of (a 4 year old little girl )went to be with Jesus. There is no explaining why this happened and the parents, grandparents and close family and friends are grieved. Only God knows. I never got to meet her, but everyone who has says she truly was an "angel".
A woman I know wrote a blog regarding the death of this little girl. I can't think of many words to express this tragedy, so her words will have to suffice. And she has done this beautifully!

Please join me in praying for the family still. They are going to need prayer for several months/years as they grieve the loss of this little girl.
Here are some specifics:
-That God would give them peace that passes all understanding.
- That God would bring a family/people into their lives that have been through something like this.
- That God would heal their broken hearts.
