"God Don't Make No Mistakes"

That's what a super sweet lady told Leslie and I in a restaurant in Atlanta yesterday when she saw Leslie crying and thought she needed a hug. We explained why we were crying and she said "God don't make no mistakes!". That is so true but it's really hard to understand why things happen when they do.





It is so hard to watch one of your children hurting. My daughter Robin delivered her stillborn baby boy on Friday night at 32 weeks gestation. She and Eric are devastated. Leslie, Morgan and I were able go down to Atlanta and hold Baby Eric for a while yesterday. No one may ever know why this happened but God knows. Please pray for Robin and Eric because the days to come will be so hard.

Becky, I'm so sorry. My heart and prayers go out to you and your family. Things like this are so hard to understand ... but you're right ... God doesn't make mistakes. I pray that the Peace of God will comfort your hearts and lives through this hard time.

My grandmother was a midwife and always said God knew what He was doing. We have to trust in that.

I am so sorry for your family's loss. You are in my prayers.

I'm sorry for your loss! May God's grace cover them in the coming days and years, and may his strength be tenfold for them as well.
