"He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm,
and carry them close to his heart, and shall gently lead those that are with young." Isaiah 40:11

Precious! But I think I can see her weariness in these pictures, and it makes my heart ache. God, be merciful!

After reading your last few entries my eyes are wet and my heart is so very heavy. As you settle down for the evening and sleep tonight, my thoughts and prayers are with you. May He give you peace and rest tonight, and the strength and courage to face tomorrow. Love you all.

we're praying for you all over here. We were reading psalm 139 this morning in our homeschool reading - & it comes to mind as i think of each one of Rachel's days being written down before one of them came to be.
Your cake turned out so cute! What a sweet touch... i didn't see the butterfly quote?? Did i miss it?
& her birthday parties! O my goodness - what amazing celebrations for a tiny flame of a life so richly lived...
You're mothering her so beautifully, Kendra - be encouraged that He hears, He sees & He has compassion.

i don't know what it means to you to receive a comment from someone you have no connection to, but know that i continue to pray for you in all earnestness. the verses i've been praying for you the past few days have been: "...He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak" - Isaiah 40:28b-29. God, be their strength.

She sure doesn't look herself in these pictures - but still our beautiful little girl. Sorry, you don't know me either but I've prayed for you since you found out about Rachel when you were pregnant hence my using 'our'. You have some beautiful memories and pictures - what a gift. Keep enjoying every day with her - I know you do. Praying for you and Dave for strength, wisdom and comfort that only He can give. Sue
