{Hosanna}

Oct 2011-2 December 2011 July 2012 January 2013 Feb. 15, 2013 Feb 15, 2013December 2012I don’t know how to write this post…  This is a post I prayed I’d never have to write.  I’m simultaneously rejoicing and grieving.  The Lord gives and the Lord takes away.  Blessed be the name of the Lord.  “Our” sweet boy, Hosanna, has gone to be with Jesus this morning.  He has ultimately been healed and now has a new body that is without cancer or pain.  He is in the arms of Jesus.  He is dancing and free…forever.  And because Hosanna is with Jesus I can rejoice too.  I love Hosanna.  Another piece of my heart has gone to heaven now.  Hosanna thank you for being a boy who loved Jesus with all your heart.  You were so brave and had such great faith.  You inspired us all.  We will miss you.  Please give Jesus a hug for me.  I can’t wait to hug the both of you someday.

Hosanna, now fully alive and dancing in heaven.

2002-2013

Thank you for all your prayers and care for Hosanna.  Please continue to pray for Hosanna’s mom and sister.  As you can imagine this is an incredibly painful and difficult time.  Thank you everyone.

    Oh, only God can give me such mixed feelings! Death really does lose its sting in salvation and i am so happy that Hosanna is home within his Heavenly Father’s arms and is no longer in pain. But it also hurts just a bit, because although i never knew him, i still will miss him. I can’t wait for the day i get to meet this little boy in heaven and give him a large hug. I will be praying for his mother and sister.
    God Bless,
    Samantha

    I am so thankful that we can “rejoice for the hope within us” – there is hope in death because of Christ’s sacrifice!! I will continue to pray for Hosanna’s family.

    I’m so sad. I am so glad to know that Hosanna is celebrating right now though.

    I can’t stop thinking about this precious boy and how his mom and sister must be missing him! Even though I know that he is home. It is very hard to see his year of birth and untimely death in print (especially becuase I have a son who was born in 2002.) Lifitng Hosanna’s family up in prayer.

      Same…sigh. I know he was so young just like your sweet son. Thanks for your prayers and support friend. I love you.
