Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
“The Lord gives and the Lord takes away, blessed be the name of the Lord” (Job 1:21). The Lord has glorified Himself many times by providing for us and giving us good things... This time God has chosen to glorify Himself by bringing pain into our life and taking away something we longed to have. God has decided to take away the baby that we were so elated about adding to our family. Amy was 3 and a half months along in her pregnancy and she was starting to show, so we thought it was safe to announce to everyone about this exciting expansion plan.
Yesterday Amy and I went to see the OB/GYN and while looking at the baby on the ultrasound the doctor couldn't find the heartbeat. After double-checking with another ultrasound it was confirmed that the baby had died within the last few days. It's surprising how quickly we had gotten attached to a little baby that we never even met. Please pray for us, especially for Amy at this difficult time. God is sovereign. He knows why He does what he does. Blessed be His holy name!
