When you parted the sea, I didn't
want to walk through it. I wasn't
brave enough to see what's on the
other side.
But You were patient and You were
present. You led me through it and
brought me safely to where You wanted
me to be.
I started this blog soon after the death of my beautiful 17-year-old son, Hayden, as a way to deal with my grief. I titled it "Dear Hayden" because at first I wrote as if I was writing to him. My use of the word "dear" ended up being twofold: "used as an affectionate or friendly form of address" and "regarded with deep affection; cherished by someone." Many posts are saved quotes, song lyrics, Bible verses, poems, etc. with credit given to the actual authors as much as possible. Enjoy~
