I know I am going to mis-quote this and that right now I don't have my Bible with me and don't have any specific verses to back this post up, but I will say it's just a thought.
In Sunday School this week we were talking about Heaven, Hell and Angels. It's was a great discussion and some people were throwing questions around. Someone asked if they thought it was possible for angels to take on human form. Our SS teacher, Larry, said that he did think it was possible. That somewhere, again, I don't have my Bible of specific verses) it says to be careful how you treat strangers because there can be angels amoung us. As soon as Larry said this I got chills. I know this is a stretch and some of you are going to think I am crazy, but hear me out! Larry said that there was talk about the "Giants" in the Old Testament being part angel, but that couldn't be the case because angels can't procreate. Girls with Turners Syndrome are sterile. You see where I am going. I couldn't help but think, "What if God sent us our own angel in Ella Grace? What if she was just sent here to teach us the things God needed us to learn and to help us along our way? What if she was an angel in human form who has existed, at the right hand of God, for eternity?"
Isn't tht an awesome idea? What if? I think it gives me comfort and makes me feel more peaceful, but I don't know if there is any truth in it? I do know that someday I will know. Someday when my eyes are blinded by the light that radiates from Christ and feet are set upon the Streets of Gold. When my eternity is filled with praising the Lord of lords...I will know. I will understand if our sweet, tiny, precious Ella Grace was actually a warrior angel sent here just for us or if she was as it appeared. Just a baby who couldn't stay in the world because God had other plans for her. Either way, she is and will always be MY angel. My Baby Girl.
I am praying for you today and for your own angels! Please let me know if you have any specific prayer requests!!

I truly believe there are angels masking as people walking about this earth. And I don't think it's a stretch to believe that your little Ella Grace was one of them.
I really liked reading your thoughts on angels being sent to us to help us learn things that God needed us to learn. That really resonated with me.
Sharing your thoughts about everything you're processing right now I believe is really healing for yourself and helps others like me see things in a different way. And for that I thank you.
so much of this journey just doesn't compute in the human mind.... i don't know how scripturally possible this thought is (as i've often said about my own random but comforting wonderings) but isn't it such a sweet thought that He could love us THAT much to send send us someone so amazingly special...... one day we will know all the answers. another oh so comforting thought to me.....
(((hugs)))
It makes perfect sense. Ella is most certainly an angel of the highest order.
I really believe our angels are out there waiting for us, and that within time, we will know why our angels had to leave us in physical form. We will know someday.
It's just waiting for that someday that really sucks.
I BELIEVE in ANGELS :) All forms, those who walk "with" us and those who "soar" above. I believe.
Please hold in prayer my college room mate Kathy, who lost her father last week. And, my cousin who'se breast cancer has re-occured and lastly me, as I welcome prayer...God knows my needs :)
Sending you love,

I just wrote about Angels..and how they are here for us when we need them the most..when we are sure we can't take anymore.
I am sure Ella Grace is YOUR ANGEL..and the joy she brought to your life will live in your heart forever...get to the the joy that is still waiting for you.
I def do believe that God can send angels in human form to us to help us along our way. There are books our there called Angels Among Us. They are good! I think they are by Robert Strand. There's 3 books
I was always taught my whole life that when babies die before birth that they only needed to come to earth to recieve their bodies because they proved in the premortal life that they would remain perfect on earth so there was no need for them to endure trials to prove their faithfulness. Which totally helped me endure our loss...the Lord chose ME to have a perfect child. He trusted me enough to have this huge trial of losing a child knowing I would be able to endure to the end, and maybe help a few people along the way.
Very soon after losing our baby, Evan, I was reading a book about a man and his experience of visiting the other side while his body lay in a coma for a few months, I can't think of the title right now. In this book he said that in one of the 3 "trips" he took to the other side the family members who passed away before him were able to meet him at the veil and teach him a few things to in turn teach us here on earth once he recovered. He had a cousin who died when he was 18 years old, so they all started talking about him and how hard it was for the family to go through that loss, then his spirit family explained to him that sometimes when children die young it is to be a spiritual guide, or an angel, to the family they left behind. I totally get that...Evan is our angel, with us to guide us and bring us comfort. I HAVE AN ANGEL AND IT'S MY SON!!!
"What if she was just sent here to teach us the things God needed us to learn and to help us along our way?"
I just came to the very same thing this evening about my Tristan. God is working His power. How awesome and blessed are we?
Looking forward to moving through the process with you in our bible study.
