May the good Lord hold this family in His hands and comfort them, give them His strength through His love. Amen. ❤

I blame Al Jankovic for what happened with my daughter's birth. Everything appeared to be normal but we decided to attend a movie. I worked at a cinema outside of Atlanta, GA. The movie would be UHF. My daughter so much enjoyed the movie that she started to "twist and shout". Three days later, my wife's water broke and our daughter was born. She was delivered by cesarean=an as a healthy child. The family rejoiced mightily. "YEAH!!". So today, I am awaiting the birth of my grandchild. I only care about "ten l;little fingers, ten little toes". I am looking forward to the blessing of being Grandad to a lovely child. My prayer is that I and other potential other grandparents will be blessed and satisfied with what child is delivered. Tehila et ah. I hope that I have the Lakota right. Be blessed. Thank you Rev. Ed for such an wonderful message.

I'm a retired Neonatal nurse and I love this message! Those preemies DO know more than we give them credit for.

This story broke my heart. She’s God’s little angel now

I feel the little one was agreeing with your prayer and telling her parents it's ok, the angels are here with me. They will see her again, in the next pregnancy. Thank you for talking about how even babies can understand what we say. I was taught under the guidance of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Our souls know who Jesus is.

That was so sad . My mom told me that when you look in a newborn's eyes. You see such knowing and love. When my daughter and granddaughter were born, i looked into their eyes and it was there. The knowing and love. Perhaps that is the Holy Spirit too??❤

Praying, loving,and may the peace of God be with you all 🙏

I hope that I can learn to pray with the purity & trust of Brielle's prayer. And I pray, with Brielle f for her parents & sisters to feel God's comfort, grace & overflowing love as they say good bye to her. Thank you Rev Ed for giving us the opportunity to connect & be touched by Brielle, her family and one another in life's struggles & joys. God bless you, little Brielle, her family & all of us trying each day to be the change/good we want to see in the world.🕊️❤️

I will grieve over the loss of this little child and in my tradition I will wish her family peace and strength - and also do the same for you, Rev. Ed. these past few years we have lost so many children to the hubris of man and all perpetrated under the guise of some ordination by god. And losing even more, such as this child, through the fault of nobody. I will grieve.

Thank you!

I’m praying for Brielle’s family. My parents lost a baby boy born after me. He was 25 days old when he passed. My uncle who was a surgeon tried to repair his bowel but the baby died on the operating table. The artery in his abdomen was twisted around part of his bowel and it had died off. That was in 1960. Back then it was too late to repair the bowel. Nowadays, doctors operate on babies while they’re still in the womb, but back then they couldn’t do it. So he died and my dad cried as he carried the small coffin on his shoulder to bury it. In those days they didn’t have support groups for parents who had neonatal deaths in their families, and my mom would cry alone in her kitchen. It took YEARS for her to be able to hang a picture of her baby on the wall along with our pictures. It was that painful for her She passed away in 2022, so now she’s in heaven with him. She had often wondered how she would find him when she went to heaven, and I told her she would find a baby. At least physically. He died as an infant, and Christ hasn’t returned yet, so his body wasn’t raised anymore than ours are. My mom was a practicing Christian, so I’m not worried about her spiritual fate. She made it her life’s mission to help people. She even became a social worker at a time when most women went to schools that taught them how to run a household and raise kids. She graduated from University of Montreal with the equivalent of a Master’s degree in social work. In those days in Quebec if you didn’t have a Bachelor’s degree from a classical college, you couldn’t get an actual Master’s degree either, but it was accepted and she worked until the age of 65 when she had to retire. After 43 years in the profession she was ready for retirement. She was 95 years old when she passed. I miss her so much.

She was received by legions of angels, playing in God’s garden with butterflies and hummingbirds. I lost a child, he was 3, no pain like it. Amen.

Rev Ed, I play piano for end-of-life patients in palliative care at my local hospital, partly as a volunteer in memory of my late father for whom I was a full-time care giver for 12 years, and also as an employed musician. After a long and seemingly celebrated career in Music, it is the most humbling, and the most rewarding thing I have ever done. I feel it is my calling, even beyond the call of Music that first saw me take up Music as a child. At the palliative care centre where I play, many families of mixed cultures, religious beliefs and the like, come together within the fellowship of care shown their loved ones by nursing staff, myself and each other, that those divides we perceive of in the "outside" world to stem the flow of God's Peace and Love; even the notion that Death should be marked by grief as much a part of Love as is Life the expression of it, are simply not there. There is only Love, and this a simple Truth! I suspect this is what you witnessed, yes? I'm not sure if there is a direct correlation here, but I can't dismiss the idea that everything comes down to Love, the Love of God as it rests to weep above! Blessings!

My rescued puppy mill dog did not leave a dark barn stall for 6 years . After we adopted her , every morning , first thing , she would fly out the door , hurl herself on the ground with a huge dog smile and paw the air with extatic joy . Even the last day of her life she conducted this ritual . I knew that she was offering a prayer of gratitude. Everything prays .

The baby was greeting Father Trevor with joys in her face because you personally came over to the hospital to bless her in front of her parents so that the next morning her soul could leave peacefully and directly back to Heaven. 🌈 It is very blessed to have someone who has faith to pray for someone who is dying to be accepted into Heaven in Jesus' name. There is one special prayer for that in Christianity. 💖 Our world is full of sorrows, not staying too long was a wise choice of Baby Brielle. May her safe return to Heaven got acknowledged by her parents in a dream or a miracle soon. Our souls never dies. This is a very touching real life experience, it saddens me a bit for a while, but it brightens up my emotions when realising the other aspects of the same experience. Amen. Thanks for sharing it with us. 🙏

If you're right, and there is a heaven, then Brielle is there. I can only pray/wish that her parents and her sisters, and you, Rev. Ed, take comfort in that, leaving her safe and happy.

Amen! Rest in peace little one. ❤🙏🙏🙏

Thank you for sharing this very moving, very thought-provoking, very personal moment in the life of an angel. ❤

❤

Today, God recalled His angel. 🙏 Matthew 18:1-3 At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." ✝️ ✝️✝️

Lord hear our prayers and comfort this family and Reverend Ed. Recieve Brielle soul into eternal peace. Amen

Prayers for the family, for you, and for us all.

That sweet little angel was going home and talking with her Lord Jesus. 💕💕💕🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Bless us all, I have no inspired words or quips. I just pray that Brielle's family find peace.

I know exactly what it's like to lose a little brother at a young age. I had the perfect little brother in 1962 and he was perfect for about 3 months. He wasn't growing correctly and we found out he only had three chambers in his heart! He only lasted about 5 months and I lost him. God bless that family! May their pain be short and their memories be long!

My niece, Rebecca, had a NDE as a newborn. From what Rebecca has told us, Briell was met by loved ones and is covered with love in Heaven. The ones suffering are those left behind. Who miss out of the joybof sharing life with her.

I used to say when my children were babies and they were babbling on and making noises I said they're speaking the language of the Angels.

She was praying in the Holy Spirit. Praying for her family.

Father take this beautiful baby unto you and let the family have peace. We love you LORD in Jesus' name amen 🙏

Oh God knew about the hairs on Brielle's head. What is your prayer about - to show how pious and devout you are!

Amen 🙏, prayers ❤. She was praying

What a beautiful tribute to that child!! It is a wonderful thing to be fully present in circumstances that can be so difficult. I’m glad you were there for that family. 💞Peace be with you🙏

For we do not know how to pray as we ought but the Holy Spirit Itself prays for us in groans too deep for words. May Brielle's prayers be before God as incense as are ours at the evening sacrifice.

💚 Brielle is now resting, or maybe even playing in heaven with the angels😇. When it is time, she will be at the pearly gates to welcome her parents, siblings, & maybe even her Church W/O Walls family who prayed 🙏 for her today, 6/6/24.😊 RIP BRIELLE ☦️ ❤❤

Amen

Thank you for comforting people in their time of need.

God Bless Rev Ed 🙏 Prayers for the family 🙏..The Holy Spirit is a true gift of God... God Bless the infant and the family.. Peace 🕊️

What a good mama talking this way to her little daughter who would be going to God soon. Amen and bless Brielle’s family and you Father.

What a heartbreakingly beautiful story and way to look at this! Thank you, Rev. Ed, for giving us a new perspective. May God hold this mom and dad and sisters close in His love, as he's holding that little baby now.

😇😇😇😇😇 She will be missed. Such a short stay but so much love given by a bright shinny soul. May her parents feel that love always whenever they remember her. May they be comforted and their broken hearts soothed as they bravely face each new day with an angel nearby, but just out of sight.

Beautiful words and thoughts. I was a neonatal intensive care Hospital Corpsman years ago, I had five healthy kids at home one an infant, needless to say I only lasted 6 months. Could not handle all those innocents dying

What I find absolutely beautiful/devine is the process of through your service as clergyman to local community your bringing back to the online "parishioners" experience's that illustrate w/new perspective, profundity & in my humble opinion correct insight/understanding of scriptures, teaching of Christ & in this case Paul's referencing the "nature" of the Holy Spirit that have perhaps gathered dust in our understanding. As though the Holy Spirit is breathing itself into the written word. The efficiency of the Holy Trinity never ceases to amaze me!

😇❤️🙏🙏 Amen

I pray for Brielle your family

((hugs)) to that family. Sweet angel.

We're all getting ready to go home.

🙏😔💕🥰

Amen 🙏

Hugs. There are no words.

Many Hugs to Brielle, her Family and you ✌️☮️🕊️

Hello Rev. Trevors, please know that I am praying in agreement with you for the little baby girl. As The Lord has said where two or three are gathered together in prayer, He stated that He will be in our midst. I am so very sad to hear of her passing. It is also stated that to be absent from the body is to be present with The Lord. Please also know that I am praying for the parents and family. I have lost a newborn son. I know of the hurt and pain. But I also know of The Lord’s promise that I will see him again. May The Lord continue to keep and bless you always Rev. Trevor’s. 😢Love Forever 💕Evangelist : Tracy

Through tears, such blessedness...

How beautiful. I believe this. Brielle left a gift for all of us in that short little life. Thank you for this, Rev. Ed.

That’s deep…

🙏 - you and that family have my prayers...

Thank you for a beautiful, beautiful talk.

children who pass before the age of maturity are recipient of God's grace as they pure. O God! Rear this little babe in the bosom of Thy love, and give it milk from the breast of Thy Providence. Cultivate this fresh plant in the rose garden of Thy love and aid it to grow through the showers of Thy bounty. Make it a child of the kingdom, and lead it to Thy heavenly realm. Thou art powerful and kind, and Thou art the Bestower, the Generous, the Lord of surpassing bounty. -‘Abdu’l-Bahá

Thank you for sharing this Reverend and I did take a moment to pray for this family. I have a question I've meant to ask, do you have any books you like or any good resources on theodicy? Stuff on how we can still believe in God despite calamities and sufferings like this family experienced? With this family and with the countless families around the world (thinking especially of the Middle East) it can be hard to see God at work.

😢

Sending thoughts to Brielle's family and you. I'm glad Brielle had such wonderful parents. I hope they have a good social network. My mother always said babies are trying to tell us the things we forgot from the other side. As soon as they can talk our language they'll forget those secrets, too. Your video is a nice coincidence for me. My micro preemie just turned 19 today. I was fortunate they (singular) surpassed all the doctors and nurses expectations. Despite some relatively minor medical hiccups the first month they've had no long term side effects. I wish every parent could be as fortunate.

I believe that this came from St. Francis of Assisi: “Pray unceasingly, use words when necessary”

Baptism is the joining the group, not an excuse for superstitious fear. Welcome to her anyway. The Spirit was speaking through her.

There is a part in our local cemetery dedicated to those babies and infants. It is sad to see how many there are.

Yes, if you feel compelled to post these types of signs in public please leave your Name, Address and Number so that you can reached by anyone who sees them. GOD BLESS.

You are a GOOD man. I can't give you any higher praise. You, sir, are a GOOD man.

Bless you Rev Ed and the family. I hope your prayers and the baptism brought you and everyone involved comfort. At the risk of being insensitive, this video did trigger me but not for the obvious reason of a baby girl losing her life. Rather it was when you mentioned that the child was baptized and therefore she was connected to Christ and therefore of course her prayers could be heard. In my faith she was always connected to God and your prayers and the baptism were for you not for her. The idea that God is only accessible through the Church and through the story and life of Jesus is one of the most salient points why I am not a Christian. The obvious fallacy that an infinite and loving God would require people to have learned of this specific story from a specific group of people and culture and embrace this on faith or else deny them the hope of salvation from all the other cultures implies a God which is not universal and not loving. The conclusion of such a faith would be that all the other people are damned. The Buddhists, the Muslims, the animalists , Hindus, Wiccans, atheists or whatever other faith on non-faiths we could name or imagine are all lost. Even the ones who live in a community where they have never heard of Jesus. Or live in a community where they would need to reject and challenge all of the practices of their families and communities. These people are less than in the eyes of God? They can only earn love respect and redemption if they surrender their loyalty to their ancestral culture? God was never present in these places and lives until some missionaries came along with the special name? This is incredibly arrogant and narcissistic of the historically Christian cultures. God for me and none for thee. This idea is very clearly to me about power. It naturally creates a divide between people in the church and those outside the church. A divide which has been utilized repeatedly in the past to help the church accrue power. Ironically often while directly countering and subverting the message of Christ of universal love and acceptance into a paradigm of us versus them Basically for me if your religion requires me to believe that only certain people are saved while other different people are lost, and the difference isn’t even based on their own behavior but rather where or when they happened to born, then to me your religion is obviously immature. It is a product of your own culture and one of its fundamental purpose is to other people to help create differences between groups. Differences which help the in-group form cohesion and cooperation and justify exploitation, domination, or conflict with the out group. You see this at work when past Christians accepted slavery or demonized aboriginal peoples. My goal is not to cause offense. But I do encourage everyone to challenge themselves about the details of their faith and ask themselves if the tenets and practices are helping them be the person they want to be and helping create the culture they want for their community. Or is it maybe leading you to judge other people? My personal belief is that we as humanity have yet to perfectly understand and put our relationship with God and the universe into words. And most likely that doing so doesn’t even matter unless it would help us be the best version of ourselves. Just a thought. Cheers

I agree about God always being with us - just referring to the prayers we said in that moment.

Prayer is a nice sentiment, but it doesn’t accomplish too much. Prayer worked There would be no need to call 911. It’s been said that to Hands, working together will accomplish more than 1000 hands folded in prayer

But what good is it to baptize a person without their consent ( free will ) 🤔
