I feel identified with your situation. I had a miscarriage a few months ago. It was so painful and it takes a while to get over it. I don't know if I am completely over it yet, but I agree that God shows his love and mercy in VERY clear ways when we are experiencing pain and grief. I mean, very clearly. Praise the Lord! I will continue praying for you, Leah, and for your husband and kids. xoxoxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-615854911685478130.post-37169349524427629352012-02-03T08:25:08.007-08:002012-02-03T08:25:08.007-08:00As someone whose job is helping to save babies, th...As someone whose job is helping to save babies, this breaks my heart. I am amazed at your steadfast faith, and wish that I could see things as you do. You are the Christian that I would like to be.<br /> When I was pregnant with my 2nd child, my 20 week ultrasound put me at a higher risk for a down syndrome baby. I was so scared. My doctor offered me an amnio to determine for sure even though his gut feeling said that there was nothing wrong. With the risks involved with that at 21 weeks, I chose to have no further testing done. After all, I was going to love this baby no matter what was wrong with him. <br />I pray that your faith remains strong and that when your baby girl enters the world, that you envelop her with love and absorb everything that she has to give you. She will be a blessing no matter how long she is here on this earth. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-615854911685478130.post-89358023593404066262012-02-03T07:47:58.336-08:002012-02-03T07:47:58.336-08:00I do not know you but found your blog through a fr...I do not know you but found your blog through a friend on Facebook.

I read of you in Caleb's Caring Bridge. I just read your blog. What wonderful Christians you are. That is how we get through tough things on this earth. I am 62. 5 years ago, something happened in my life that I thought was the most unbearable thing EVER. I now know God's plan was perfect. That has enabled me to totally walk through whatever happens with faith, knowing God has His unseen purpose. Perhaps all your purpose with Elizabeth Grace is to give her a gentle home till she returns to God so that you can help others who might end up lost because of this occuring in their lives. We do not know and that is the beauty of it. God bless you. I admire your courage and love of God.

I appreciate your words that are so encouraging to others during your difficult time.<br />Sometimes I don't think we fully grasp what Jesus meant about sending The Comforter--when He talked about the Holy Spirit.

It has given me an understanding to some stuff that I've been going through and how God works... Wow! It is so amazing of what a wonderful Father we have. He is going to use you and that precious little girl in so many ways, and I could tell you He already started with me. I have been around these situations many times being that I worked for an OB but never witness the faith and glory that you are giving to our Father.
