Elijah Griffin Hill ~ February 21, 2010

Elijah Griffin Hill was born Sunday, February 21, 2010 around 4:45 p.m. Approximately 2 hours later, Eli left the loving arms of his mother and father to be held forever in the arms of Jesus. Please continue to pray for Jennifer, Jamie, Jay, Cooper, Lucie Rose & all of the family.  The days ahead will be long and difficult, but we know that God will meet each need by His amazing grace.

I am so fortunate to have all of you in my life and especially to have the blessing of seeing Eli and holding that precious baby! He was absolutely beautiful! You know I will miss spoiling him like I do all my precious nephews and niece. One day though-one day. I can't wait!

  11. I am a friend of Tina and just wanted you all to know how much my heart is breaking for all of you. I have been praying for you and will definitely continue. I can't imagine your pain right now but I do know the One who does and I am continuing to trust that He will heal your wounds and give you His Perfect Peace! I have been so encouraged by your strength and faith and know that God will continue to use your family and Eli to bring Him glory! His little life was short but he has made an enormous impact in my life! Thank you for opening up and sharing your painful journey with us. I pray that God will keep using you in a mighty way to comfort others and also share our Hope we have with Christ.

    Much love and blessings,

  12. Jennifer, Jamie and children. We send our greatest sympathy for your loss. I hope you take some comfort in that while you suffer the heartbreak, Eli must be joyous to have seen you all.
    I believe that God gives us angels. And your angel Eli wanted to see your loving family SO MUCH, that he came for a short time just to get a real life glimpse before he returned to heaven.

    Keeping you all in our prayers.
    Love,
    Aunt Laurie and Uncle Quentin

  13. Jennifer, Jamie, Jay, Cooper and Lucie Rose. Words can not express how our heart breaks for you. You are a wonderful mother and would most certainly have been a wonderful mother to Eli. Though it is hard to understand why Eli was taken from you, take comfort in knowing that he is being rocked by Jesus now. We are a phone call away if there is anything our family can do for you. We love you guys!

  14. Grief and sorrow, joy and jubilation, anger followed by profound gratitude, tears and laughter, receiving ministry and ministering to, and always, always an abiding love. Lord, forgive my moments of questioning, and accept my deepest gratitude for the gift of Eli, for the lifetime of love Eli received and is recieving in his short stay with us. Thank you for Jamie and Jennifer - who could have loved him more? When we are able to see again through the fog of grief, we will all be better people, closer to you, because Eli was with us. Please continue to bless Jennifer, Jamie, Jay, Cooper, Lucy Rose, Jennifer's family and my family.

  16. Mrs. Hill!
    I have been praying for you through this whole journey! I just want you to know that EVERYTHING works out in God's hands. He chose for this to happen because it will change you life, it will help you grow. Cast all your troubles on the Lord and he will lift you up through triumphs and tragedies!
    "Boundless love, unending joy, this is my life, it's what I know! I can't believe, that HE selected me, Jesus my Lord, its you I owe!" Jesus is you reliance. Go to him, he will help you through everything! I love you Mrs. Hill! (and this IS a miracle!) (:
