I'll take it

It is late, and I will update more tomorrow. Just wanted to praise God that the baby does have kidneys and a bladder.

The doctor gave this baby a 10% chance right now.

At this point, I'll take it.

Still praying for my miracle.

God is WAY bigger than the percentages! Cling to the hope you have in Him! He is able to do far more than we ask or imagine.

I'm amazed and awed that you are still finding ways to praise Him in this stormy time. You are a beautiful testimony to Him in all this . . . He is bringing beauty from the ashes of this situation. He is growing and refining you for His purposes and will use this situation to touch many lives - He already is!

I know that living through this is excruciating . . . and that the days and hours feel twice as long as normal. Praying that you will continue to feel the Lord carrying you through this . . . that you can lean fully and wholey into Him for your strength.

Use the Word as your lifeline . . . pray scripture when you don't know what to pray . . . Psalm 77 was a great one for me. It helped me to lament, to question, to cry . . . but yet, to come back to praise and trust in His faithfulness. Sometimes it all seems like more than one person can handle (and it is without Him), but He knows your pain, He loves you more than you could ever know, and He WILL be faithful . . . it all comes back to TRUST . . . a word I have a love/hate relationship with.

Praying daily, hourly for you and that precious babe!

((((hugs))))

I think Sonny said it all. I just wanted to say I'm thanking God for your baby's kidney and bladder and the hope that you were given. Still praying for you and Josh to the God of miracles!
