One of the hardest things of getting back to some sense of normal has been everyone else’s sadness. People don’t know what to say, how to comfort us. Of course we know we are OK and will always be OK. That’s what our faith in God gives us. But how to explain that to others who don’t understand that Love? I end up making silly jokes, talking too much and probably making others feel worse. I must try and get better at that.
The more I think about all the things that could or are likely to happen the harder it is to stay focused on the good things so I choose not to. My trust is not in Gods ability to heal our baby, of course He could if He chooses but simply that His will be done in our lives. He knows best and has promised us that by giving our troubles over to Him is the best we can do.
Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

At a time like this God is the only lasting and real source of rest and peace. We will always feel panic struck and useless because we are human and as christians we know without God life would be almost impossible to bare.Knowing that God is always there for us and with us and that we can feel safe in his presence and that just like our earthly fathers in timesof trouble we can curl up with his arms around us to sooth and heal us .
All of our prayers are with you both and your baby.My prayers are for the holy spirit to come upon you both and to fill you, with hope for the future,peace and perseverance.
You are absolutely right that the way to pray is for God's will to be done in your lives and that of your little one just as it is done in heaven. He is our Father in heaven and He does love all three of you. Yep, it's hard for people without hope to understand the quiet joy that we can have as God's own. May this be a testimony to all of those around.
I like what rod said. I join this prayer that the Holy Spirit will come on you and fill you with the mighty presence and power of Jesus.
With deep affection,
Brad
