let us pray...
please, all who read this, take a moment to pray with me...
gracious and ever loving God, we ever thank You for the gift of new life, and a new soul soon to walk among us. You are about to have born a child who, for reasons beyond our comprehension, will be challenged right from the start. we cannot understand Your ways or Your mysteries, we can only accept Your will and surrender ourselves to it. but being the God whose property it is to always have mercy, You have chosen to give this child into the care of a family that is loving, caring, strong and supportive. grant them the strength to walk the road ahead, ever knowing that You are leading them always deeper in to love; give them courage and good humour, understanding and compassion, and surround them with others that will care for them in their time of need, as they care for this child you have placed in their care, and as You care for us all.
in Jesus name, we pray.

I really love that prayer. Did you write it? Please come share your ideas at my blog, thkx. It's christianfaithblog.blogspot.com.
I read and prayed with your little prayer, not being a practicing Christian it still touched me enough I felt I had to participate .
Thank you
thank you. your prayers are gratefull appreciated. the only consolation we have is what a wonderful and deeply loving family the child is being born into...
God bless,
I agree with your statement above...
Everything in life is precious, especially the love of God...nothing is more powerful or meaningful than the love of God.
amen. and even a baby born with such challenges is a gift beyond all compare. and this family is worthy of that kind of challenge, believe me!
Everyone has their challenges, but this sort of challenge I believe to be different. It is even a blessing in itself, if you will. Taking care of a child such as this one teaches one how to love unconditionally, be strong, and stand up for what one knows is right.
what an insightful and beautiful observation. thank you!
our hearts and prayers are with you always, my love.
