I ASKED GOD "WHY??"

I ASKED GOD "WHY?"

For nine months, she carried the baby
and made preparations for its arrival.
I have never seen her happier;
they wanted this child so much.

Her due date came and passed,
they would try to induce labor,
still, nothing happened.
"Better to wait until the baby is ready."

In the early morning hours,
the pain started, it was time!
At the hospital, she gave birth,
but the baby died.

I asked God "Why?"
when so many children
are born that are not wanted,
must He take this one,,,

And God replied "Trust in me"
yet I felt that somehow
He could have saved her.
God said "Have faith".

"This little angel
left Heaven too soon;
I will dry their tears,
tomorrow will come."

The father held his baby
in his arms, and wept.
He asked God "Why?"
and comforted the mother.

There are some things
we will not ever understand
until we reach
the Kingdom of Heaven.

"Trust in me" He said.
"have Faith" -
Heavenly Father,
Thy will be done.
