Request For Prayer

My daughter Meghan has been following a young woman's blog for some time. She just sent me an email requesting prayer for her. I thought you'd want to join in praying for this little family.


Hi Mom,

A friend from my bible study had this girl's blog on hers.... so basically this is a friend of a friend kind of thing. Anyways, She is pregnant with a boy, Isaac who has a chromosome disorder and is not expected to live more than a few minutes after birth. She chose to carry him to term and deliver, while praying for a miracle even when all her medical advisers told her to terminate. So, I have been following her blog for a month or two and she is scheduled for a c-section on Tuesday. Even though I don't know this woman I feel called to pray for her. Could you pray too? Here is her blog address: http://www.sgirl79.blogspot.com/

Love You,
Meghan

Please take a look at Stacey's blog, "He Will Carry Me". You will not read her words of faith with dry eyes.

It's so wonderful to read of a person's strong faith in time of trouble. It's the kind of story we all want to read. The kind of stories they write books about and put on the Oprah Show.

I think we're drawn to this such story because we can't imagine going through it ourselves. How would we possibly cope? But for Stacey and her husband it's not A story, it's THEIR story. It's their life and it's breaking their hearts as they live it.

And so here we are. Each of us is now given the opportunity to be an unseen, unknown part of Stacy's story. We can each lift her and her sweet family before our Heavenly Father. (She has prayer requests listed on her blog.)

James 5:16 says "...The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective."

As you read her post for today, Sunday, you'll read Stacy's remarkable insight into scripture. Her request today is to be able to hold Isaac "while he's still living and breathing".

Please...read this blog and pray for this family! You can get there quickly by scrolling down the right side of this page and clicking on HE WILL CARRY ME.
