Please Pray

We just found out that some friends of ours who are expecting twins (a boy and a girl) in 12 weeks are facing a really tough battle right now. Last night, she started showing signs that she was going into labor three months early. It appears that our friend has an infection that has gotten into her blood and they have induced labor. The evidence says that these babies now have no chance, but we belong to a God who decides those things.

Please pray that God will heal our friend and that these babies will be fine. If you're going to pray the "If it's your will, God..." prayer, please don't even bother. Jesus taught us through all of His many, many healings that it is God's will to heal so that the Father can be glorified. We are simply to ask with faith the size of a mustard seed that He can do what He says He can do and we are shown through Jesus (who said that we will do even greater things!) how to do it. Please pray only for healing believing that that is exactly what our God can and will do so that He can receive glory.

Wow. Thanks for posting this, David. I can't even tell you how much our family adores you and Steph. Y'all are honorary Jarvis/Keeling/Cobbs by proxy.

What we call despair is often only the painful eagerness of unfed hope.
