When I lost my Caitlin Jesus whispered in my ear that with God there is no time so it will seem as if just a moment has gone by until you are reunited. I pray these words give you the peace I received.

After I lost mine at the age the age of 40, my husband and three sons gave me a baby shower. It was so sweet. They all wrote beautiful, touching things in a card and put it all in a gift bag. I still have it 23 years later, this month. God is always good. God bless your family.

Hey Joe, may the Lord who sees and knows all things heal and restore you and your family in Jesus' name. My wife and I experienced two losses - ectopic and miscarriage. It was hard, but God strengthened us, and through those trying times, our faith in Jesus grew stronger. Doctor said we couldn't have kids, but God opened my wife's womb and blessed us with twins. Be encouraged brother.

Was at a scan where they found no heartbeat & immediately in my spirit I heard "I am the resurrection & the life." My husband & I prayed / believed for physical resurrection that didn't happen but I knew God had still prepared me with His comforting truth; Our babies are alive & with the King! The rest of the scripture says that He who believes in Him though he dies yet will He live. We prayed for natural passing as opposed to starting with pills & God answered again, confirming He was still with us in grief. A little after passing my child at home, as I cried I had a mental vision of crying on Jesus' lap as he stroked my head. Just behind Him was a field & my child played in a sun-filled field. I knew all was well & now I cry when recalling it all because He's so faithful. Praying for your family loss & period of mourning ❤️

On my 12th birthday my 5 yr. brother was hit and killed by a driver who was in too much of a hurry. When at the funeral I could not accept the fact that he was not there anymore. God let me visit him for 5 days in my sleep. We played and had so much fun. I was only allowed to see a small part of Heaven. But before he left, he told me, ( my brother,) not to be sad. We will be together again one day. That made me feel joy ,and peaceful. I know he sees me every day. Thank you Lord for allowing me to be at peace. Y'all will be together again. Peace be with y'all. God loves you. 😁

I have no similar story, but as a Christian and a parent, I am so sorry for the pain your family is suffering. At the same time, dear ones, take comfort that you will see that child again and be with her forever. 💔❤️🩹❤️

DISCLAIMER ** MAY BE DISTURBING** Im incredibly sorry to hear about your loss. I carried my twin boys until almost 6 weeks of pregnancy. First I had a bag rupture, but the baby was okay, i was almost forced to abort but I chose to keep the pregnancy praying and believing the Lord would make it all okay. A week later I had a cord prolapse at which point we were forced to cut the cord and end twin A's life to prevent infection and sepsis, a week later an arm was coming out which they had to cut off, a week or so later I started with a high fever and chills and was rushed to the hospital, at that point i was induced and twin b was still alive, but were were told not viable, we were forced to cut the cord, but there were only student nurses available, so we had to wait with the baby attached to me laying in my leg for about 1 hour. At that point I bled out 2/3 of the blood in my body, I wanted to hold my baby, but instead I was rushed out to surgery and for a blood transfusion. With antibiotics they stopped the sepsis and I had to get loads of blood to recover what I lost. I went home physically alive, but dead, 2 moths later I got pregnant w my now 6 year old miracle. He's the most beautiful blessing. I mourned the loss while pregnant and when my child was born I was excited happy and blessed and still mourning. I still am. I was secretly angry at God for not stopping the nightmare. Surely he could have spared me a bit?!!! He spoke to me and told me, some things he stops and some things he allows, and he told me that as much as it hurts, life is a glimpse compared to eternity, he said my mind is focused on now, and his is focused on eternity. He told me through Jesus my story has a beautiful eternity and he said this will all be used for his glory while I'm here on earth. My precious babies are waiting in my father's arms for me. It may not make sense but I realized it doesn't have to. Like a wonderful movie or book, the character goes through many horrifying trials, but what matters is the end of the story. Most of the time those horrific things make a beautiful ending when you see what God does through them. How he shapes us, how he molds us, I am now focused on eternity, as this life is just a glimpse. For now I believe God wants us to share and carry each others burdens and just share there is hope and his grace is sufficient. Sorry if my words are not enough, truthfully words never made anything better, just sitting at the feet of Jesus until the sadness and anger slowly faded away. I don't share the graphic nature of my story for pity, but because the Lord said ww overcome by the blood of the lamb and the word of our testimony. As it is also translated in to " the do it again story" i share this because u have to see how deep my loss was to know how AMAZING my Jesus is to have rescued me.

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
We’ve had a very sad start to 2025. This year, we were expecting another child, but at our 21-week scan, we were shocked to be told that our baby had no heartbeat. Two days later, Emma was induced to give birth naturally. She was so brave. On February 6th, 2025, Anna Grace Kirby was born sleeping.
Although we are grieving, we do not grieve without hope, as we believe in a Saviour who loved children deeply and we are comforted knowing that Anna is now safe in the arms of Jesus.
I know I’ve already been away from YouTube for a while as I’ve been on the road doing other ministry, but as you can imagine, I’ll need to take more time off to support my wife and family, and also as we arrange Anna’s burial and funeral.
When I do return—aside from the videos I filmed before all of this happened—I hope to share some new messages (Lord willing), as I believe He has taught us a lot through this trial. I truly appreciate your patience, but rest assured, I will eventually return to my usual content aimed at unbelievers.
What has really helped—especially for Emma—is hearing from other believers who have walked through loss and how God carried them through. If you have a story to share, we would deeply appreciate it. You can comment below or write to us at
