In Remembrance of Michaela Brown!

Well today has probably been one of the most difficult days as it was 3 year old Michaela Brown's Funeral. I just don't know how a non Christian parent makes it through such a difficult time. I know that she is up with Jesus having the party of her life! Her dad shared with us about Michaela. He said that if there was a mention of party at all, she was ready to get into the car. Such a beautiful little girl. She looked like a Princess in her casket. So peaceful! There were 3 pastors who did the ceremony. Pastor Jeff shared about this little girl loved the outdoors and bugs! She loved all kinds of bugs and critters. She was fascinated by them. Then on the contrary was such a girl! She loved to play Princess and dress up. She loved to wear pretty things. He said how she was a perfect blend of her parents. He shared at how when they were picking out the cemetary to bury her in, they found the perfect one where it was in the country and there would be lots of bugs for her. Then the other pastor, Pastor Don shared how when they went to be with the family at the hospital after she passed away. He said that he and his wife went into the room where Michaela was and that noone else was in there. He said he could feel the presence of Angels in that room and could hear them talking about how beautiful Micheala was. The Angels kept repeating it over and over to each other, Look how beautiful she is! Oh you have to see her! He said that he knew that she was surrounded by Angels!!
Now about how difficult it was. I told my 3 year old that she died the evening she passed on. I asked her if she remembered Michaela at church and she said yes. I proceeded to tell her that she died and went to be with Jesus. Well, when I was reading her obituary online, Mara said that is Michaela and then she said, she is dead. When I was getting ready to leave to go to the funeral, she asked where I was going and I told her I was going to say good-bye to Michaela and she said, I want to go say good-bye to Michaela. I know that she doesn't quite grasp the whole death thing but I wanted to share with her. I have kept asking God these past few days, why He needed to take such a young little girl and why He couldn't take someone older. I know that God has everything lined up and knows when our time is gonna come but it just doesn't seem fair! I do know that I will be praying for this family for a long time. It is going to be a long road for them but they know that GOD is going to carry them through it. Also, her dad Rick had told everyont there that in order to see Michaela again, they need to know Jesus and have Him as their Saviour! So great that he was able to do that at such a tragic time. Wow!!! GOD IS SUCH A Sovreign GOD! I hope I didn't bore you with this but I am still emotional when I have a moment to think! I pray that each one of you who reads this blog would be saved! TO ACCEPT JESUS INTO YOUR HEART IS SOOO EASY!!!

This was one of her favorite songs. Her dad said that she would blare it soo loud in the car. Enjoy!
