Its a great book about a little boys venture to heaven. I'm a Christian and it filled me with so much joy and happiness and it eased my pain of losing my angel baby because it has a chapter talking about a miscarriage and other great details as well. I'm am so happy I have a caring loving God who would use this book as a tool for helping with my grief. Just give this book a try!

I totally AGREE with you.. My FIL got this book after me after my 4th loss.. I literally couldn't put the book down.. It made me feel so much better and it helped ease the pain and anger I had.. It gave me comfort in knowing my angels are with our Father waiting to meet my family... I am glad someone else read this book and agrees with me...

My Dream of Heaven by Rebecca Ruter Springer is another one that is SO encouraging in time of grief... similar premise to the one you described.

I agree! I read it a few weeks ago in one day. I couldn't put it down. I cried throughout the book, but the part where he told his mom about the baby she had lost really did me in and gave me so much hope.

Nayomi80 you should really give this a go. It's not an expensive book nor is it long (I read it in a day at work).

ldovey83 it did the same for me. I was also angry and mad at God but when I read the book and started reading my bible more, I believe that God loves me so much he wanted to test my faith and take my angel baby. I've read in the Bible it is a blessing to be tested by God because it shows He loves you enough to really test your faith. I know some people would see that as a bad thing but ever since He took my angel I've been closer to God then ever before. He wanted me closer to Him and unfortunately sometimes it takes extreme measures. This is only my experience and I'm not saying that for all the babies who went to heaven are being used to test your faith in God. Sorry for the ramble!

Thanks for the book recommendation. I just checked it out on amazon and it looks like a great read.

Bluebawler: I totally agree with what you said about God. I believe in God's will and it was his will that our children go to heaven. I was so angry at God when I first had my miscarriage but through prayer and council with my Pastor I am now closer to God than I was before my loss. God is an awesome God!!

melissalaw I totally agree. It may hurt us for only a little while compared to Eternity that we will get to spend in Heaven with our babies as well as God! Amen
