The Baby

I have just gotten home from the hospital. I have miscarried. Aparently the baby died about 2 weeks ago and now my body is going through the process. We are very sad but at peace. The kids are staying the night with friends and will be told tomorrow. It is now 9:50 pm and I was there at 11am so I am going to eat dinner and go to bed. Thank you for your prayers and please keep praying for us. All those who have emailed and commented, your words are precious and I will try to email you tomorrow. I will see you all tomorrow. God's ways are not my ways and God's thoughts are not mine.

  • Outside my window - bright nordic summers morning with blue sky and flowers all over.

    So, I pray for you and your family that the light of the Lord will light up your day and your hearts and let you dwell in His presence as, I know, you're already doing.

    I also pray He will show you all the beauties He has in storage for you and your family.

    We know - He is faithful.

  • Hi. I just found your blog while looking for info on morning sickness.

    I am so sorry for your loss. My mother has always told me that a miscarriage feels exactly the same as the death of a child you've held in your arms. I can't imagine your pain, but you are right. God is great and his ways are not our ways.

    One of my favorite poems:
    My life is but a weaving
    Between my Lord and me;
    I cannot choose the colors
    He worketh steadily.

    Ofttimes He weaveth sorrow
    And I in foolish pride,
    Forget that He seeth the upper,
    And I the under side.

    Not till the loom is silent
    And the shuttles cease to fly,
    Shall God unroll the canvas
    And explain the reason why.

    The dark threads are as needful
    In the Weaver’s skillful hand,
    As the threads of gold and silver
    In the pattern He has planned.
    (In Sourcebook of Poetry, comp. Al Bryant, Grand Rapids, Mich.: Zondervan Publishing House, 1968, p. 664.)

    I wish you His comfort and guiding hand at this time in the life of you and your family.

    God bless.

  • An other nordic morning. While you go to sleep, we wake up. So the Lord has given us the posibility to lift you up 24h.

    I pray for you and your family that the Lord will comfort you, and let the light of His face shine up on you all, and that He will keep your hearts close to His. And give you some good sleep!

  • You're in my prayers and in my thoughts. I just went through this in April, the thoughts and feelings are quite fresh. God hold you in the arms of His Comforter, and in the arms of your family and brothers and sisters in Him.

  • Our paths seem such a mystery sometimes to us. Praise God for heaven, and his power over death! The two of you will be reunited in time. May you be surrounded in peace.
    Continuing prayer for all of you!

  • Hi, I found your blog a while ago by clicking on the "Next Blog" link in the top right corner. I've been meaning to comment for a while and tell you that I've added you as a link on my own blog.

    Though we've never spoken or even met, I have been reading your blog regularly for a while. Reading of your miscarriage felt as if I were reading the blog of a friend going through this sorrow.

    Your time of hurt and loss has brought me to tears, and to my knees to pray for you and your family. It has also, in its own way, brought me encouragement as I see you hold fast to your faith even in these moments of darkness. It is a true testimony of believing God even through the deepest of valleys.

    I pray for love and support for you and your family, and I praise God for a faith as strong as yours. He will bring you through this.

    - Jen

  • I know you have no idea who I am but I followed a link to your blog just now and feel compelled to send you some ((Hugs)) and prayers.

    I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious child. I know all too well the pain of such loss. May the Lord wrap His strong arms about you and comfort you in a way that only He can.
