Although I do not personally know the Johnson family, I feel as though I do. I pray that God gives you and your family the strength to deal with this horrific accident. You know if God knows every hair on our head and he knows us before we are even conceived, he definitely knows when our time here on earth is up. As a parent we must understand and accept that our children are God's children first and that he gives them to us to be caretakers while they are here on earth, but they were never given to us to have forever....I pray for strenght and peace for the Johnson family...

May these words give the Johnson Family some comfort:
If tears could build a stairway
and memories were a lane,
I would walk right up to heaven
to bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken.
No time to say good-bye.
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God knows why.
My heart still aches in sadness
and secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you,
No one will ever know.

To the Johnson Family:

First to her parents, there is truly no sorrow greater than the lost of a child; and to that pain there is no greater love or healing than the love of GOD. I pray you peace and comfort as you try to regain some normality to your lives. I pray that GOD will walk with you in the moments when you are alone and you wish to hold your baby near. I pray that GOD's grace will carry you on the days when you feel too weak to stand. Most of all, I pray you strength. Strengthen faith, strengthen love, and strenght as a family unit. May God comfort and keep you; with my deepest sympathy.
