Quote from Susan's Blog on Sept. 6th:
"This morning has been really rough. We are now less than 1 week away from the baby's birth and on the way home from taking Marty to work, it hit me pretty hard. I had to pull over and cry and pray for a bit. I'm feeling better, but the tears are still just under the surface..."
Please join in prayer to uplift this family during this tough time. Susan Godfrey ( former blog at homeschool blogger) will be induced on September 12th, with a potential c-section if things don't go well. Because the baby has potter's syndrome, it will die within hours of being born. They have known about it since the beginning of June and her blog has contained many heart-wrenching posts about the life alive within her that's safe until it enters the world.
For those of you interested, please leave a comment (please include your blog address) as to what time slot(s) you would prefer to pray for Susan, baby, husband, and two children, and then click on the following link to print out a "reminder sheet" to put somewhere you can see so you won't forget the time you've committed yourself to (this is central time zone, so adjust accordingly... if you're having trouble figuring your time zone in relation to this, go to TIME AND DATE . COM). Also, you don't have to pick a time if you'd like to just pray as you feel lead. Please leave a comment letting us know so the Godfrey family can see the many prayer warriors lifting them in prayer!
GODFREY PRAYER REMINDER
UPDATE (Sept. 8th): Susan has posted one last time before the baby arrives with prayer requests. She wrote:
1. That we have a quick and safe labor and delivery
2. That I don't have to have a c-section
3. Please pray specifically for my children, Colt (13) and Riley (2). While Colt is really old enough to understand, he still hasn't expressed his grief much and I'm pretty sure that "the dam" will break after the baby gets here. Riley doesn't really understand what's happening at all, but I worry about the emotional scars on both of my children from this.
4. That the Lord's will be done, what ever that may be. While we pray for a miracle we also know that the Lord may have reasons we don't understand for the baby not to survive.
5. That Lord helps us to accept his desicion, what ever it may be. That His grace and mercy comfort us.
Please spread the word on your blogs as well. This will be a tough time for the family, and I'd love for them to be blessed by knowing they are completely covered in prayer!

NOTE: Because of the confusion with time zones and such, please make sure to stop back to be sure I've written you down for the correct time. If I've made a mistake, please feel free to email me and let me know. Also, some didn't write in their blog address or weren't logged in at HSB. Because of the overwhelming response, I haven't had time to search for your links. Thanks for understanding (as I have 6 under the age of ten running around) and thanks again for praying!
