Gail...I know the questions will keep coming...because still I question...not so much His decision...but in the fact of "did I do I was supposed to in her lifetime?"

I am LOOKING with great expectation toward that new heaven and new earth! Even so LORD---come quickly!

Thank you for sharing these precious memories. Wi...

Thank you for sharing these precious memories. Will be praying for all who are touched by Sydney's journey. I am, currently, in the process of wondering if and when the tears will end along with placing one foot in front of the other and simply remembering to breathe in and out. God is good all of the time but life sure isn't.

When I was in high school, we lost 4 students (friends) to a horrific traffic accident. Death rudely interrupted our lives in a way we never imagined. It would take a long season and a lot of tears to put "parameters" around my feelings about the entire event. Even now, when death strikes, it profoundly shifts the direction of my heart. I've buried way too many friends over the past year and am currently faced with the urgent needs of others looking in the facing of death as I type.

Praying for your daughter and the family of Sydney this morning.

Gail,
Your story left me covered in goosebumps...and they're still there.

"How do you put one foot in front of the other...?" I think the only way you move on and keep from being swallowed by grief, is to do just what you said, put one foot in front of the other. Take one step at a time, one day at a time.

Loss like this is one of the hardest things for us to understand in this life.

I'm praying for you and Sydney's family.

Dear Gail,
Thank you for posting this touching story. Yes, my heart asks, "Why Lord?" together with you and the others... and we know we will have the answer in eternity.

Gail,
I've recently Kayleigh Freeman's video and I've followed Sumi's blog on the death of her precious angel by drowning...a boy from our Christian high school was killed in a traffic accident, his father a pastor...beautiful children...all...so full of promise...makes no earthly sense..so logically my mind goes it must make some heavenly sense I can't quite grasp..yet because I know He knows, I'll leave it there and just ask for grace for those of us left behind with holes in our heart, memories of a life that brings joy unspeakable, longing for the what-ifs...
Father, let Your grace wash over those whose hearts hurt this day for a loss that they cannot comprehend. Hover over each one of Sydney's loved ones, friends, family and anyone she touched. Let this be the moment where they come close enough to You to hear Your whispers of comfort. In the Name of Jesus, I pray, Amen.
