Heavenly Bonds

We struggle with the fact that we are here on this earth and our babies aren't.  Some days that struggle is harder and bigger than it is on other days, sometimes it feels like an absolutely unbearable task.  Some days we may imagine them waiting in heaven with open arms for us to come home to them; other days we may imagine they hate us, and never want to see us, or much worse.  If we imagine the latter, we aren't giving enough credit to our Creator.  He created bonds to last into eternity, no matter the situation or circumstances surrounding the severing of those bonds.  Though we may think or feel that we severed the bond with our babies, when we decided to have them physically removed from us; we didn't and can never sever the spiritual and emotional bonds God placed inside each of  us with the inception of our children.  Our Father would not allow the destruction of those bonds, doing so would go against the very nature of His love; even if we may sometimes think that's what we would deserve, our children do not deserve that.  

Psalm 139:13 tells of the creation of this bond, one that God obviously respects way too much to allow it to be destroyed, "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb."  That bond is still very much alive in Him and in heaven with our children, and within all of us as mothers; and through it, we are all bonded to each other, as well.  This Psalm passage goes on to tell about how each of our days are written in His book, before one of them ever comes to be; so He knew what would happen in our lives, the choices we would make, and it does not take away the other bonds He has put in place for us.  We can look forward to enjoying all of the luxuries that those bonds afford us, when we reach heaven and finally meet our little, loved ones for the very first time.
