Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day

This Satuday, October 15th, is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day.  This is a day we remember our lost little ones.  We remember babies born asleep, or who we carried but not met.  Those we have held but couldn't take home.  The ones that make it home but couldn't stay.

I am asking that, not only will we remember our lost little ones, but that we remember the families that lost someone so special.  Please keep those families in your prayers this week as they take time to remember what they had and lost.  Pray that those families find peace in knowing God WILL give us glory!

I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.
Romans 8:18

Pray that these families know that thier lost little one in now safely in the arms of Jesus.  Our little ones are on barrowed time.  God gives us our little ones to care for until they return to their true home.  Although our little ones were taken away too soon, we WILL be together in heaven one day.

If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.
Romans 14:8

Pray that these families understand that Gad has a family planned for them.  We do not know why the family we had planned did not work out, but God does.  He has a child waiting for us, yet we do not know where or when this child is coming.  Please pray for patientce for these families as they wait for God's plan to unfold.

He gives the childless couple a family, gives them joy as parents of children.
Psalm 113:9

Please pray for Tom and I this week as we remember Grant.  Please pray that we find answers to help us move forward and plan a family.  Pray that God shows us His plan and where to find our family.  Please pray for our patience, our understanding and our peace.

No one who puts his hope in You will ever be put to shame.
Psalm 25:3

Praise God for His faithfulness in giving us a child!
