Heartbroken for Brooklyn

Dear Baby Glauber,

Your parents love you so much. They spent their last days surrounded in faithful celebration of Purim. It is with hearts full of God’s presence that they left you so suddenly. You are a miracle they leave behind. You are a miracle that they carried and through God’s amazing love, continue to carry.

We all around the world are praying for your safety, for your health, for your life, that one day you will meet with God’s presence and feel the same supernatural joy and goodness that they, your parents, felt for you and with you in their last days here on earth, and in that meeting, you will trust that you are a miracle, you will trust that you are loved, and you will trust that God can purpose the biggest tragedy of your entire life, the biggest displacement possible between you and your parents, into a supernatural transformation that brings you even closer to them, to their wisdom, to their discernment, to their love, than ever would have been possible without this enormous tragedy.

I am so sorry. I am so, deeply, broken and sorry for the death of both of your parents, that you won’t ever see their delight in you, you won’t ever feel their physical touch of adoration and affection for you. I beg the God of the universe to bless you in your breaking moments, that He supernaturally provide for you these gifts in incomprehensible measure.

You are valuable. You are loved. You are a miracle.

Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worse kind of suffering.

— Paulo Coelho

Fear keeps us focused on the past or worried about the future. If we can acknowledge our fear, we can realize that right now we are okay. Right now, today, we are still alive, and our bodies are working marvelously. Our eyes can still see the beautiful sky. Our ears can still hear the voices of our loved ones.

— Thich Nhat Hanh

People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.

— Thich Nhat Hanh

Hope is important because it can make the present moment less difficult to bear. If we believe that tomorrow will be better, we can bear a hardship today.

— Thich Nhat Hanh

You must submit to supreme suffering in order to discover the completion of joy.

— John Calvin
