There are few joys to match that which a child brings to a family. And even fewer sorrows that rival the pain of burying a child. James Bruce and his wife, Joni, knew that pain when their infant son died. They found comfort in the words of others who had known similar loss: fellow Christians such as Martin Luther, Charles Spurgeon and John Bunyan, who also wept and yet were comforted by the Father of mercies. their intimate, emotional expressions of pain, peace and hope - and their prevailing faith - are shared throughout these pages in both the short accounts and eloquent poetry gathered here.
