Those eyes...

I hope my cousin doesn't mind me sharing this...She had her first child 26 weeks into her pregnancy.  Baby girl weighed 1.6 lbs.  That was 13 years ago and she's completely healthy and gonna be a great ball player.  My cousin went on to have two miscarriages.  With her fourth child, her water broke 18 weeks into her pregnancy, because she was so far along she had to deliver the baby only for him to pass on because his lungs weren't developed enough to live outside of her body.  She just had a beautiful baby boy at 29 weeks into her pregnancy.  He weighs 3.9 lbs and I've never seen her so happy in all of her life.  Her joy is rising from within.  She could have never imagined this moment in her life.  She has so much joy that I can feel it.  Romans 8:18 says "What we suffer now is nothing compared to the glory He will reveal to us later."  We both agree that throughout all of her loss, nothing compares to this moment of joy that she's embracing now.  I know throughout everything that has happened in this season of my life, nothing can compare to the moment that I meet my Savior.  And although I may not know my baby girl when I first see her, since she will have on her new glorified body, that too will be a sweet, sweet moment.  The moment when she runs up to embrace me by putting her arms around my neck and looking into my eyes.  Because I know, that when I look into those eyes, our hearts will be united.  I'll never forget those eyes.  Thank you Lord.  God is good.
