Sep. 10, 2006 - PLEASE PRAY
I have been introduced to the Godfrey family, a wonderful family of God who desperately needs our prayers.
On her blog, Susan Godfrey writes:
In June of 2006, our unborn baby was diagnosed with Potter's Syndrome, also known as Renal Agenesis. What this means, is that our baby does not have kidneys and will not survive more than just a few hours after delivery. We have decided to carry the baby to term.
Susan will be induced on Tuesday, September 12th, with the possibility of a C-Section. Please join me in prayer for Susan and her family. Here are some specific prayer requests from Susan:
- That we have a quick and safe labor and delivery
- That I don't have to have a c-section
- 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.
- 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.
- That Lord helps us to accept his desicion, what ever it may be. That His grace and mercy comfort us.
DandelionSeeds has set up a 48 hour prayer chain and I have committed to go before the Lord on behalf of this family. Will you please join me?
