Maria....

One of my favorite christian artists is Steven Curtis Chapman. He and his wife, Mary Beth, have three biological children, and three adopted girls from China.

On May 21st, their youngest daughter, Maria Sue, age 5, was killed in the driveway when their teenage son accidentally backed the car over her while parking it. I read the story and was heart broken. It's been on my mind for a while and I wanted to post something here about it after saw a video of Maria on his website.

Recently Steven wrote a song that was inspired by his two youngest daughters and so I wanted to post that as well. You can also visit his website here.



Here is the song...

M? I started to listen to that for about 30 seconds? And turned it off. I can't imagine that kind of grief. (Or yours from before with...)
It would be like Julian was taken from us. I can't. That would kill me.
Bad enough with all of this...
I'm over the hump or pretending to be.

I'm still not...Christian type as you know, but I respect you so much.
