My heart was shattered when I heard the report.. and since then I have cried at some point every day..  we are soon to have our 13th  grandchild..  I longed to reach out.. to help bring solace and strength in these early days of mourning.  How can I help, LORD? 
I have asked, over and over again. 

And so many others have asked me, Where can we go, Rev. Rhonda?  What can we do?  They, too, feel helpless, yet they want just as desperately to share their love and support.  

Therefore, I decided to create a special page just so we can have a place to mourn, a place to grieve - as Connecticut's loss, is our loss, too. 

 I chose Eric Clapton's Tears In Heaven because that song was his pain being manifested, when he and his wife also lost 
a son unexpectedly I still pray for them.

Jesus said we are to love one another; 
we are to weep with others when they weep, and rejoice with others when they rejoice.  
Today, we are still weeping bitterly for these precious 26 lives that were gunned down so mercilessly.. yet we rejoice knowing that for  people of faith, to be absent from the body, is to be present with the LORD!

Jesus also told us to love our enemies, 
to pray for them, and to do good to them. 
We grieve for the loss of the mother of the gunman, too.. and for the family that he so tragically left behind.  
They are all welcome to grieve here with us.
  
I invite everyone to stay, and browse the site and perhaps, take comfort in the Prayer Closet, or find understanding in a song I wrote the first Christmas after my father passed away, entitled First Christmas.
It is found on the Spirit of Christmas Page.
The Navigation Key is located on the far right of this page.

Any of the women here would love to help you. My sister-in-law Becky of Rebecca's Hope Chest is a retired CHiPs Dispatcher/
Supervisor.  She knows trauma. My close friend Connie from Valley of Beracah ministers at the Pregnancy Clinic.  She knows the value of life.  And I am a Biblical Christian Counselor who suffered a massive stroke.  I know survival. We are all mothers and grandmothers who care deeply for you. 

And now, Father GOD, may You use this place as a place of healing to any who come burdened and shrouded in sorrow, in Jesus' holy name, I pray,  Amen and Amen.

Author's Note   
"This memorial poem is written as for a little Girl. To read it for a little boy, just insert "he" and "him" in place of "she" and "her".
In the Boy's version I made a few minor changes, such as changing "her rosebud lips" into "his lips curving into a half-moon", so it wouldn't sound as feminine.  God bless you ~ CMF

Welcome Home, Little One!    O       

With a huge smile, Jesus reached out His hand
to welcome His little one.
Little One only hesitated a moment      O
before she reached toward Him,
and He bent down and lifted her    O
in His strong arms.
As soon as she was encircled                     O
in the safety of His arms,       O
Little One gave Jesus a big, lovey hug,
completely unafraid.  She snuggled close
as He sang a happy melody just for her.  O

A tiny smile turned up the corners 
of her mouth,                               O
      curving her rosebud lips                     O
until she and her Friend
broke into giggles together.        O
Then, as their giggles became 
peals of laughter,
they could see bubbles of joy               O
floating high in the air,
making tinkling sounds,
as though the angels were playing 
giggle-tunes on musical bells,      O
just beyond the nearest puffy white cloud.

"Welcome home, my Little One,"       O
Jesus whispered, gazing into her eyes.       O
She reached to touch His loving face 
with her tiny hand,  
as Jesus smiled at His perfect, beautiful child.

Little One was home.

Jesus said,
"Let the little children come to me, 
and do not hinder them,
for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."

THE SANDY HOOK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE
Back To Basics

Relevant to recent tragic events in America.

When grief and turmoil dominate the news
And injustice seems rampant in our land
Often children and the helpless ones
Pay the ultimate price, from an evil hand

Although it's not right, for anyone
But especially to those who have no say
It pierces the heart, and troubles the mind
Why atrocious acts, should rule the day

It seems so natural to question "why"
That fate would befall, these gentle souls
Many stricken down, from a carefree life
Deprived from pursuing, their cherrished goals

As we seek to understand, and evaluate
It could appear to be complex
But when viewed from a spiritual eye
A simple answer it reflects

The One who spoke the world into being
Implemented basics to be our guide
From Genesis on, the blueprint is clear
Denouncing immorality, greed and pride

When departing from, His purpose and plan
And choosing a lifestyle, giving Him no place
With morals no longer, held in regard
The consequences, we have to face

He promised healing for those who would
Turn from their folly, and amend their way
Safe under His wing, He would have us abide
Cloaked in His mantle, no more to stray

No demands are asked, too great to bear
His Word is the anchor, that will suffice
In "the basics", we can always trust
No one can improve, upon His advice
