Description:

The Lord has numbered each of our days. But few parents expect that their days will be longer than their child's. When a child is buried, parents also bury the hopes and dreams, the joys and experiences that won't be shared.

James Bruce and his wife walked through the darkest trial of their faith when their infant son died. They found some comfort in the words of others who had walked the same path. The list of great men and women of the faith who shed tears over a departed child is long.

Bruce has gathered together short accounts of how believers like John Calvin, Charles Spugeon and John Bunyan wept--and yet were comforted by the Father of mercies. Their pain, peace and hope is also shared through the beauty and eloquence of their poetry. It is Bruce's prayer that these accounts and words will help mourning parents journey through the valley of weeping to the path that leads to glory while considering the work of God.
