I wish I could take the sword from your heart.
I wish I could stop your pain.
I wish I could give you back your son
and bring you joy in the rain.
Matthew fought the good fight.
You know he tried really hard.
He had dreams to help others
when from this life he was jarred
I’m sure he’d be so proud of you, Mom,
if he could see how his dream
is being kept alive by you.
his love flowing out in a stream.
Keep on going, Kelle Marie.
Don’t let it beat you down.
As you see the ministry grow
your world’ll turn back around.
Sending you lots of safe love, hon,
and lots of gentle hugs, too,
to help carry you through your days,
to help you to get through.
Oh, Kelle Marie, my heart goes out to you, hon. What a horrible thing…to experience the loss of your son. I am praying for your hurting mama’s heart. I pray that you can sense the presence of our Abba/Father walking with you through this.
With love in Yeshua/Jesus,
Abigail

So Loving & Encouraging
Wow this is just a beautiful heartfelt poem. Thank you so much for your sensitivity and yet at the same time your loving encouragement. This poem brought tears to my eyes because of the love I felt pour out in this poem. Oh how I do wish more then anything that I could bring him back or that God would let him come back but that is not going to happen, It is hard still and yes the Lord is using us through the ministry which can be a real blessing and other times it just hurts so bad because we miss him. I just spoke last Tuesday night and the director and producer's are coming Wednesday night to film my husband and I on the dangers of drug use for a High School Curriculum they have created for Jr. High and High Schools starting in the State Of California stemmed from the movie D.O.P.E. that my son is in. They are even going to use the seventh segment which is our part and they are calling it Beyond The Grave. That made us happy for that was the ministry our son wanted to have. He was the one who named that ministry of a dream he had. Thank you for entering and encouraging me through the Lord. Best wishes as well in the contest.
Wishing You Many Blessings,
Much Love Always,
Kelle Marie
