On the Alternation of Generations: Or the Propagation and Development of Animals Through Alternate Generations (1845)

A Cross in His Pocket is an inspirational book for those who are struggling with the loss of a child. The death of your child is a devastating blow, a hole is cut from your heart, and you feel it, literally. Itas a hurt that cannot be described, only felt. Nothing will ever take away the pain and emptiness you will feel at some level for the rest of your life. Good memories will eventually bring smiles through the tears; regrets about what you could have done differently may creep up on you at times. It is a constant struggle. Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is a gift, a promise of eternal love and security, a hand that will reach out to you every time you fall to keep you from hitting rock bottom, an ever-present spirit that surrounds you like a warm, fuzzy blanket on the coldest winter day. I know that if I did not have the Lord Jesus Christ in my life, the death of my 15-year-old son would have been my demise. The Lord prepared my son in many ways prior to his death for what was about to take place. He also made sure that after Tyleras death we were assured that my son was carried to his eternal home with his savior. My son did not lose his life that night; we lost ours. He just moved onto his perfect life!
