Heavy Heart

My cousin's little guy is struggling for life.  He needs a heart transplant and while I prayed for him this evening it really hit me, what I'm praying for.  It's such a heavy prayer.  Because as you pray for a heart to become available you're praying for another parent's worst nightmare to become a reality. 

How is it even comprehensible for a family to make that choice in that time, to donate their babies organs so other's babies can live.  To wish that their baby could have had the chance that their baby is giving to others.  To say it's heart wrenching is an understatement to the extreme.  

I wish the big picture could be seen. What is the plan here? What's the purpose?  I know that my cousin and his wife's faith has been shone on and it is stronger than ever.  This whole experience has brought a community together. I just don't understand, and I probably never will.

I continue to pray for a heart for him,  please will you too??

with a heavy heart.
