Embracing the Heart of Christ: A Journey of Grief, Healing, and Hope
When Gerard and Susan Fleming took their eight young children to visit Grandma, they never imagined that only seven would return home.
Their three-year-old son, Ambrose, tragically fell into a backyard swimming pool and never regained consciousness. He spent a week in the ICU while thousands of family members, friends, and strangers prayed for a miracle. That miracle came—just not in the way they expected. Ambrose’s organs, including his heart, gave life to others in desperate need.
Embracing the Heart of Christ is Gerard’s intimate collection of reflections and prayers—as he journeyed through the tragedy, suffering and grief toward accepting the healing heart of Christ.
Through poignant, searing words spoken from the wounded heart of a loving father, this devotional offers comfort, hope, and healing to anyone who has lost a loved one.
