When God calls little children to dwell with him above, we mortals sometimes question the wisdom of his love. For
no heartache compares with the death of one small child, who does so much to make our world seem wonderful
and mild. Perhaps God tires
of calling the aged to his fold, so he picks a rosebud before
it can grow old. God knows how much we need them and so he takes but few, to make the land of heaven more
beautiful to view. Believing this is difficult, still somehow we must try. The saddest
word that mankind knows
will always be “goodbye.”
So when a child departs,
we who are left behind must realize God loves children,
angels are hard to find.
