Baby Grace

I don't want
to hear experts,
nor be consoled
nor feel
relieved.
I
simply want
to put my hand to my mouth
and say,
quietly
"oh, Jesus."

thank you for reading

I feel physically sick any time I think about that poor little girl. Mark W. Galatians 5:22-23 "22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. Against these, there is no law!" My favorite verse(s) in the Bible
