Please Pray
Quick update. Abby has an MRI at around 3 PM to check for blood clots in her brain. Please pray that she is calm during the MRI and that we get accurate results. Also please pray for her safety.
Dear God, Please be with Abby in this time of need. Please keep her calm and free from pain for her MRI. Also Dear Lord, give her parents and family the strength to get through this time. Amen.
Thinking of you and your family, I cannot imagine what you are going thru, I hopeI never do or anything worse. To have a child in pain or the thought of losing a child is just beyond words. Hope that the MRI goes well and Abby starts to feel much better.
God led me to your blog at precisely 3:00 pm today. I prayed for Abby.
I have to tell you, the strength that you guys, as a family, are showing through this trial is such a strong witness to others. I read your husband's post (the one written back in July), with tears streaming down my face. Seriously, rolling off my cheeks and plopping down onto the keyboard.
Not just because, as a mother, I know how hard it must be to watch your little girl go through this. But also because, as I read that particular post, I became profoundly aware of the difference between you and me. And, I have to say, I am utterly ashamed of myself.
As a fellow believer, there shouldn't BE a difference.
I have been dealing with an undiagnosed illness for a year now. I have an appointment to visit the Mayo Clinic in a few weeks to try to help find some answers regarding the cause of my bizarre and often debilitating symptoms.
For a year now, I have outwardly SAID that I'm putting my trust in God's plan for my life. But in my heart, I've known that hasn't been the case. Fear has been the controlling factor in my life for a year now. Apprehension, anxiety, even moments of panic over what my life has become and what the future may entail. Future pain, tests...hardships.
Fear, not faith.
I am ashamed of myself. You guys, though you are strangers, make me proud. Really proud. You bring glory to our Father through your testamony and through your obvious UNYIELDING trust in Him. His plan for your daughter's life is perfect, you know that. You KNOW that. The peace you reflect in your words demonstrates that you know that. Whatever is down the line, you know his plan for your daughter is absolutely the right one.
Thank you for your powerful example. You have no idea how much you have encouraged me -- how you are encouraging others through this trial.
Standing in the gap and praying for sweet Abby - that she is comfortable during the MRI, accurate results and for her complete healing. Also praying for strength for your family.
Thank you for your witness for Christ even in the midst of a horrendous situation. You are teaching me not to pay lip service to my faith, but to live it daily even when things are not the way I want them to be. You are an awe inspiring family.
I am so blessed by Abby's life. Thank you for allowing us to pray for her. God is mighty and has chosen a beautifully, strong little girl to show the world His amazing love.
We will continue to pray for her her complete remission and healing. Someday, I hope to meet this precious little girl and the strong family God has chosen to protect her.
Praying right now for you all and precious Abby. I don't know why these things have to happen to little children but I do know our Lord is in control. I pray that he heals her completely and his glory is apparent to everyone that comes into contact with your precious daughter.
I am praying for little Abby and your whole family. I can't imagine being in your battle. I send out reminders to all my prayer warrior friends and family asking them to keep Abby on their prayer lists. I love all your new pictures. She and your other children all have that fire in their eyes that only comes from the joy of Jesus Christ! Angela www.journeyforjordan.blogspot.com
