PRAYER REQUEST

EVER SINCE PHILLIP AND I STARTED HELPING WITH THIS CHURCH PLANT IN GLADEWATER WE HAVE MADE FRIENDS WITH A VERY SWEET COUPLE. THEY HAVE BEEN THERE FROM THE BEGINNING TO AND SO WE HAVE GOTTEN TO KNOW EACH OTHER AND I JUST LOVE THEM. THEY HAVE BEEN TRYING TO HAVE A BABY FOR A WHILE NOW AND HAVE HAD TWO MISCARRIAGES. WELL SHE HAS BEEN ON SOME MEDICINE FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS TO HELP HER GET PREGNANT. ABOUT A MONTH AGO I GOT THE FEELING SHE WAS PREGNANT AND ASKED HER HOW HER MEDICINE WAS WORKING. AFTER CHURCH SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE WAS PREGNANT. WOO HOO. PHILLIP AND I WERE SO HAPPY FOR THEM. WELL THIS PAST WEEK AT CHURCH SHE TOLD US THAT THEY WERE HAVING A GIRL... SHE IS 17 WEEKS AND DUE ON OUR ANNIVERSARY. WELL DURING THE WEEK SHE HAD TO GO TO DALLAS TO GET A LEVEL 2 SONO. THE NEWS WAS NOT GOOD. THE BABY HAS POTTER'S DISEASE AND THEY TOLD HER SHE WILL PROBABLY CARRY TO TERM BUT THAT THE BABY WON'T LIVE AFTER IT IS BORN. I AM SO HEARTBROKEN FOR THEM. I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW PEOPLE CAN HAVE ABORTIONS AND THEN THE COUPLES THAT WANT A BABY SO BAD CAN'T HAVE ONE. SO MY PRAYER IS THAT THEY WILL HAVE PEACE DURING THIS HORRIBLE TIME AND THAT THEY WILL LEAN ON EACH OTHER AND KNOW THAT GOD IS THERE WITH THEM. I CAN NOT IMAGINE PLANNING ON GIVING BIRTH AND THEN PLANNING A FUNERAL RIGHT AFTER. MY OTHER PRAYER IS A SELFISH PRAYER BUT I PRAY THAT BY SOME MIRACLE THE BABY WILL MAKE IT. I DON'T KNOW ALL THE STATISTICS BUT IT NEVER HURTS TO ASK.
