Still holding on

The Sunday School lesson for the week was "Living With Tragedy" so fitting for my life and for what appeared to be a recent tragedy for me.

It’s now been eight weeks and my little munchkin has gone; short lived but yet I trust Him. I am still looking forward to Motherhood, it’s just…. where did you go baby? What happened Lord to the little blessing inside of me?

God answers all prayers and so with that I know and trust that it was not time. Yet again I name it and claim it that Motherhood is coming just for me. As funny as it seems, my husband just doesn’t understand all that I am feeling. Yet I trust that God will work on and through us both to get through what appears to be a tragedy. I often think and daydream about what was wrong with my baby. Was it a girl or a boy dark like mommy or stocky like daddy? Whatever the cause I know the cure is Jesus.

Oh, girl... I am so, so sorry. I wish I was somewhere close to give you a hug and just sit quiet beside you. You are a mother, honey. So sorry for your loss.

I am sending you my biggest sister hug and want you to know that even now God knows what you need and he is ever present. Tell him your tale. He will hear you and hold your heart near his. Your perfect miracle is already being made; it is already done.

***hugs***

when i was 5 my mother gave birth to my sister, who died 2 weeks after birth. i didn't know it then, but my mother almost lost her life as well. after that, she experienced 3 or 4 miscarriages before being blessed w/ my little brother. the doctors all discouraged her from carrying my bother to term, but she said that he was her gift from God & that God would see them through. and He did. My brother is now 14 & healthy and happy.

i pray my words have given you hope and encouragement. you are wonderful & will be blessed beyond measure.

your baby will come in the fullness of time.

be blessed.
