I know you didn’t get to say goodbye, all the buckets of tears you cry.
Life was so not fair, the heavy pain you now bear.
I’m a whisper in the wind.
Sweet kisses of love I’ll always send.
My life on earth was cut short.
But I’m playing with King Jesus in the mighty court.
I see glimpses of you, you know.
Reminders of me I get to bestow.
I’m never far from your heart.
It’s only a season that we’ll be apart.
Keep your heart open to love.
So one day you can join me above.
I know you miss me beyond measure.
Together forever will be our eternal treasure.
I’m rooting for you and cheering you on.
To finish life’s race real strong.
Holy Spirit poured this poem strongly into my heart shortly after Joshua’s accident, and He told me this is what Josh wanted to say to me. And every word is exactly what he would’ve said to me! I’m sharing this to encourage others that Holy Spirit will pour deep into your heart what you need, just when you need it. He truly never fails us.
And Happy 4th Heaven Birthday Joshie Pie
Your fourth birthday in Heaven and 26th birthday here. I will always wonder so many times what you are doing up there. I know what you would be doing here…celebrating your special day being spoiled and pampered; taking you out to eat wherever you wanted to go; doing whatever you chose to do for the day with all of us because you absolutely loved being with your family; Alisha & Chloe buying you a cake; and Chloe excitedly giving you your cake and eagerly blowing the candles out with you and latching onto you like she always did because you two were superglue. And without a doubt, she’d quickly rip open the wrapping paper to help you see faster what your presents were.
She decorated your cake this year in basketballs and hearts, and of course red & pink…you and hers favorite colors! She was telling everyone it was her daddy’s birthday and that you were in Heaven and that she misses you real bad.
We miss you beyond measure baby boy. The pain of wanting to talk to you and see you is simply unreal. I hang onto one day spending forever with you, and you waiting at the gate with a BIG and LONG hug for me.
We love 💖you forever and always Joshie Pie.
