In my favorite poem by Robert Frost, Nothing Gold Can Stay, he reminds us that like the seasons of nature, life is one season melting into another, and quickly fading away. This is my attempt to document each season in my life and my family.

Praise God!

I am too exhausted and sick to write a proper post, but I wanted to let you all know that God heard and answered our prayers. The u/s today showed the opposite of what last night’s u/s showed. There is nothing on my left side where they thought they could have saw an ectopic pregnancy, and there is now a pregnancy in my uterus. I don’t have to make a heartbreaking decision concerning an ectopic pregnancy. Praise You, Jesus! The bad news is that they said the pregnancy did not appear to be healthy. He told me he expects me to lose the baby. I go back Friday to have my hormone levels checked again. Please continue to pray. I will post a proper blog post tomorrow. I need to sleep right now. Thank you, Friends, for lifting me and my baby up in prayer.

Ahhh! He’s strong and He’s loving… powerful and merciful.

PS 62:11-12

“One thing God has spoken,
two things have I heard:
that you, O God, are strong,
and that you, O Lord, are loving.”
NIV

“God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God. Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy.”
KJV

“Once God has spoken;
twice have I heard this:
that power belongs to God,
and that to you, O Lord, belongs steadfast love.”
ESV

Rachel,
I don’t know if you remember me, I was a high school friend of Amy’s. Chatted with you one time through Amy’s chat box I think. Anyway, I have a book about Pregnancy that I would like to recommend to you. I normally don’t but I just know that you are strong enough in the LORD to receive it. The book is called “Supernatural Childbirth” by Jackie Mize. It is a book that is specifically geared for the woman who wants to conceive, but can’t or the woman who has conceived but having difficulties. You see it is an in depth promise book of GOD’s word about pregnancy and conception. You might be able to find this book at your local Christian book store, possible will have to order it online. It shouldn’t be more than say $10? If you have any trouble locating it shoot me an email back and I will see if I can help! I am praying for you, and your precious baby. I will watch your blog for updates. GOD Bless You and Keep you! Delisha Webb

p.s. Some words to a song that might encourage you…

I AM NOT FORGOTTEN
GOD KNOWS MY NAME
HE KNOWS MY NAME
HE KNOWS MY EVERY THOUGHT
HE SEES EACH TEAR THAT FALLS
AND HE HEARS ME WHEN I CALL

hope this helps!
