Important Week
It is a pretty exciting and important week coming up for us. We feel our sweet angels literally so close, and the last time I prayed this much was when I was pregnant with Ryker, and of course the seven weeks he was here on earth. In the LDS religion, we have an amazing book called the Book of Mormon. I was reading today, and the words just were literally so sweet to my anxious soul. I want to share them with you. It is out of a book called Helaman, chapter 3 verse 27 (29 is so good too!) and it states: " Thus we see that the Lord is merciful unto all who will, in the sincerity of their hearts, call upon his His holy name." Well, our little family has certainly been doing their fair share of calling upon the Lord. It is such an overwhelming feeling to know how much our Heavenly Father loves us. It has been a long time since I felt my children around me, nearly every day. It humbles me and brings me to tears. I wish I could tell everyone of you the comings and goings of our life, but there is just too much to share and so many of you we do want to share it with. But there will be a time. No matter what happens someday, the story will be told. Please continue the prayers in Gracie's behalf and also ours. And if you are LDS, or are of a faith that fasts, we will be fasting this weekend for ourselves and also for sweet Gracie. Thank-you all so much. We feel the strength of the prayers and know that prayers can bring about miracles! This week (we are praying) will continue to be a week of miracles (it is definitely time for sweet Grace to get better and be able to come home!)

ReplyDeleteOk, SO I have been checking your blog NONSTOP. I don't know if I should be worried or excited. I am going with the excited aspect of it all. Our prayers are continued for you and your family. I am so grateful that you have felt the sweet, perfect spirits of your little ones. What a precious gift. Thinking of you.
ReplyDeleteI have left you a comment before, I know you don't know me. But I have to tell you that I have been so touched by your life. I have also found so many other strong wonderful people from coming across your blog. My heart aches for you and others who have been through hard times like you. I think about you often and pray that something good will come to you soon. Miracles do happen and you deserve one. How is your niece today and does she have a blog? I have had that sweet baby on my mind as well as the other Gracie. So sad :( I am so blessed by reading your blog, thank you for sharing your stories, even though it may be hard, it touching lives like mine.

I found your blog through a blog through a blog through a blog...You know how that goes:). I got on and my baby woke up and then i remembered that we had stake conference that started in one hour so I rushed everyone out the door, forgetting to turn the computer off. I just read that you would like everyone to make a comment so that you know who is here. I am not a crazy that has been lurking for the past 4 hours:). Anyways, your story is inspiring (albeit impossible to imagine). I hope you know that i will be praying for your niece and your family during this trying time. Not to mention sending you many positive thoughts:)! May God continue to bless you with peace and continued strength.
