And that is beautiful. <BR/><BR/>I don't know how long God will wait to answer you. <BR/><BR/>Here is what I am praying over you: <BR/><BR/>Psalm 44 ...All this happened to us, though we had not forgotten you or been false to your covenant. Our hearts had not turned back; our feet had not strayed from your path. But you crushed us and made us a haunt for jackals and covered us over with deep darkness. If we had forgotten the name of our God or spread out our hands to a foreign god, would not God have discovered it, since he knows the secrets of the heart? Yet for your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered. Awake, O Lord! Why do you sleep? Rouse yourself! Do not reject us forever. Why do you hide your face and forget our misery and oppression? We are brought down to the dust; our bodies cling to the ground. Rise up and help us; redeem us because of your unfailing love. <BR/><BR/>And I do pray that God answers you, in His good time. Many hugs for you today.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14833566579478384512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7668050648919046122.post-82820188030455347612009-03-26T08:40:00.000-04:002009-03-26T08:40:00.000-04:00I will pray for you while you cannot.

I can only imagine what you are feeling right now, and I really don't think that your feelings are harsh in any way. I think I would be doing a whole lot worse then you! Please know you and your family are in our prayers. I guess,even though our situations are completly different, my situation with the twins is the same in the "unknowing" I think that not knowing is the hardest part. I know all the new stuff with the twins, makes me so scared, and yet there is nothing I can do but pray and try to stay strong. It is so, so hard though. I am praying for you.

But please know that many woman are anemic at this stage of pregnancy due to increased blood volume and baby taking what she needs to grow (see, she's working on it!) and many have high glucose screenings that turn out to be nothing (I did it myself!) You have every reason to be terrified with what you have been through before, but she is alive and kicking, still in the normal range, and testing capabilites are limited. And God is always there and His potential to heal is infinite. I don't have the answers, for you or myself, for why our moms or our babies couldn't stay with us, but I do have hope, for your little girl, for you, for our loved ones in Heaven.

I don't know how long God will wait to answer you. Here is what I am praying over you: Psalm 44 But now you have rejected and humbled us; you no longer go out with our armies. You made us retreat before the enemy,and our adversaries have plundered us. You gave us up to be devoured like sheep and have scattered us among the nations.<BR/>You sold your people for a pittance, gaining nothing from their sale. You have made us a reproach to our neighbors, the scorn and derision of those around us. You have made us a byword among the nations; the peoples shake their heads at us. My disgrace is before me all day long,<BR/>and my face is covered with shame<BR/>at the taunts of those who reproach and revile me, because of the enemy, who is bent on revenge.

It has helped me get through many heartaches.<BR/>"He who dwells in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say the Lord is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him will I trust. He shall call upon me and I will answer Him. I will be with Him in trouble.I will deliver Him and honor Him." May the Lord deliver you from this trial, and give you peace. I pray everything will turn out well. May He Hold you and your precious daughter in the palm of His Hand and may this be a testimony to His greatness!
