I will pray that you will be able to accept all the help you need, and that you will have daily reminders of His faithfulness and promises!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08584931999590532413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2932117597103506267.post-49559892966366768312012-10-16T10:49:26.606-07:002012-10-16T10:49:26.606-07:00First, thank you for your perspective.

I recently finished Job, I should have a "why not me" attitude after reading it, but...<br /><br />I've been where you are, bed rest, with littles. It was so hard, but His mercies were new each morning. I pray he magnifies His mercy on you, and provides all your family's needs. I pray you see Him at work, and delight in His hand on your life. <br />Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01240575765252692365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2932117597103506267.post-30849572260535352452012-10-15T17:55:36.337-07:002012-10-15T17:55:36.337-07:00Wow!

Having been in a very similar situation myself almost 3 years ago I can share one thing... you will continue to be amazed at His Goodness, His love, His timing, and His tender attention to detail. The one other thing I would share is that at first I was resistant to having others help me, it was so hard!!! Although you can't put up much of a fight tied to a bed : ) but once I finally allowed them to help, not only did it lighten my burden but we were so blessed by those around us who were the hands and feet of Christ. They loved my children, fed my family, cleaned my house and did so many things I could never list! My heart is forever changed by their generosity. Praying for you, your sweet baby, and family. Thank you for sharing and allowing those of us far away, who love reading your blog, an opportunity to pray for you.

And for help with the other three while you're on bed rest! Thanks for being such an encouragement and example!

I went to my regular midwife's checkup a few weeks ago (at 15 1/2 weeks along) and was told that my baby didn't have a heartbeat. You got to see that sweet baby and find out that it was okay! And in the middle of everything and feeling awful for myself, I spoke to a friend who has Lou Gehrig's disease and her brother recently died and her father was diagnosed with cancer, and I felt extremely grateful for my small trials. Two sons having to go get stitches or staples in two weeks is nothing compared to the trials that she's going through, and I'd certainly rather have a miscarriage than have the possibility of having to leave all of my children behind. The Lord puts these things in our way to mold us into the people that he knows that we're capable of being. Be grateful for the small trials because they could be SO much bigger. I'll have you in my thoughts and prayers as you try to get through this trial in your life. Good luck!M Mommy to 4https://www.blogger.com/profile/03737375508717572489noreply@blogger.com
