Asking for prayer

Yesterday morning Kriscinda had a doctors appointment and sadly they were unable to hear the baby's heartbeat. Kriscinda underwent a D&C this morning. She is feeling pretty well, just taking it easy today. As you can imagine this is very heart breaking news for us and we would appreciate your prayers. Please pray that we would continue to experience the Lord's comfort and nearness and that we would turn to our faithful and loving God and trust in his plan for us. Heaven will be a full place for our family, we have 3 babies now with Jesus, all who we long to hold.
Thanks for your prayers!


~ How Firm a Foundation

How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
Is laid for your faith in His excellent Word!
What more can He say than to you He hath said,
You, who unto Jesus for refuge have fled?

In every condition, in sickness, in health;
In poverty’s vale, or abounding in wealth;
At home and abroad, on the land, on the sea,
As thy days may demand, shall thy strength ever be.

Fear not, I am with thee, O be not dismayed,
For I am thy God and will still give thee aid;
I’ll strengthen and help thee, and cause thee to stand
Upheld by My righteous, omnipotent hand.

When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
The rivers of woe shall not thee overflow;
For I will be with thee, thy troubles to bless,
And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.

When through fiery trials thy pathways shall lie,
My grace, all sufficient, shall be thy supply;
The flame shall not hurt thee;
I only design Thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine.

Even down to old age all My people shall prove
My sovereign, eternal, unchangeable love;
And when hoary hairs shall their temples adorn,
Like lambs they shall still in My bosom be borne.

The soul that on Jesus has leaned for repose,
I will not, I will not desert to its foes;
That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
I’ll never, no never, no never forsake.

I'm so sorry, I have experienced the pain of miscarriage as well, and pray that you continue to know and draw comfort from the Amazing Love of our Lord. He is near: "The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit." Psalm 34:18. Praying for that sweet comfort that only He can provide...
