Lord, tonight I pray for the strongest women you have made. The ones that are struggling with things only women understand…and you of coarse.
Lord, I pray for my friend whose heart is hurting. The baby girl that was promised to her will not be coming home with her, unless you intervene. She feels cheated and betrayed, and yet she knows that the birth mother is making this choice out of love. But it still hurts. Comfort her heart. Thank you that you have perfect plans for their family.
Lord, I pray for the mama of our sweet Baby E. Lord, I know her heart must be breaking over the consequences of her decisions. Comfort her. Restore her. Draw her to you. Help her be the mama you have made her to be.
Lord, I pray for my sweet friend whose heart is anxious over the life in her womb. There are so many questions. Heal her body, Lord. Heal her heart. Show her more of you than she ever knew possible. Show her your faithfulness. Show her your mercy. Give her friends and family words of encouragement straight from your heart, and help us keep quiet in love when there is nothing that needs to be said.
You are amazing, God. You are. Draw close to us.
Amen and Amen.
