And you will see.<br />That though you miss your baby,<br />she is caught up,<br />in Me.Tammy On the Gohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14043677672931768639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5976308102785818520.post-55324581582661959582011-01-26T23:10:54.011-05:002011-01-26T23:10:54.011-05:00Just here because of my friend Niki Lott.

I have two very close friends who went through very similar situations and I cannot imagine what you must be feeling. I have thought of you so many times this month and prayed that you would feel God's arms around you. As I sat by my daughter's bed in the ICU, I know people must have prayed that for me because I felt God there with me many days. If there is any way I can do anything more than pray, please let me know. I will continue in prayer for you.<br />Jennifer Brockett-ClarkJenihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06494730000225724259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5976308102785818520.post-19275769982274766032011-01-26T16:06:58.330-05:002011-01-26T16:06:58.330-05:00I don't know you and you don't know me... ...I don't know you and you don't know me... but you are my sister in the Lord!

Your story has touched MANY lives, mine the most, and your story is a testimony of the grace of God. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing your story with us; that takes a lot of bravery to make yourself so vulnerable to people who do not know you. My prayer is that God richly bless you and your family. Blessings are coming your way. You stay faithful to God and His BEST will be bestowed. <br /><br />Blessings!Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04886257250846401524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5976308102785818520.post-89692241774230514782011-01-26T15:40:08.101-05:002011-01-26T15:40:08.101-05:00Hello, Natalie.

Always remember that there are so many people praying for you. We all may not know the exact hurt you're feeling, but we're feeling for you and asking God to intercede.Robynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10361032218389485024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5976308102785818520.post-60576323999340534922011-01-26T15:28:07.007-05:002011-01-26T15:28:07.007-05:00It's amazing how God works.

He brings people into our lives that have walked the same path to guide and help us. <br />So many times after Uriah died people would ask me "What did you have?" <br />I would reply, "A little boy". <br />Then they would ask why I hadn't brought him with me. I always felt so guilty having to tell them that he he had only lived 2 days. They always felt so bad for saying anything, and I felt bad for making them feel bad. Then we would both stand there with tear in our eyes. Then I would somehow try to tell them how God's Grace was sufficient. So many wonderful opportunities to share His love. So many tears. <br /><br />Natalie...it does get easier eventually. It always hurts but the hurt lessens. <br /><br />hannahssimplethoughts.blogspot.comHannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10689159388778616060noreply@blogger.com
