  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

please pray for me

I had a miscarriage this past October. It was my first pregnancy, and it ended at 9 weeks. We've been trying ever since, with no results. For some reason, this month, I'm even more focused on the results than I have been in the past. I'm heartbroken by our loss, and scared to death that I either won't conceive again, or that'll I'll conceive and have another loss. I know the miscarriage has served a purpose, in that it has deepened my understanding of loss and pain, and made me more compassionate in my practice. It opened my eyes to the callousness of healthcare providers during the patient's time of suffering and pain. It has made me renew my vow to be compassionate in my own practice. I pray that I have learned this lesson well enough, that I can turn my own pain around and use it for the greater good, and that I can be granted my heart's desire, a child of my own flesh, created by the love shared between my husband and I, and blessed with God's own perfect love. I pray for a healthy conception and pregnancy after my miscarriage. I pray that I am, even now, pregnant, and that there is an infinitesimal life growing every day unknown. Lord, hear my prayer.
In 6 days, I should know again, positive or negative.
I need your prayers, if you'd be willing, to help me relax and let go of my selfish worries, and to help me perceive and accept God's will, whatever it may be.

:hug: :hug: :hug: for you. These are not selfish worries.
May the Lord bless you and fill you with His peace and give you strength to accept His will and to trust that He loves you greatly and will give to you that which you need to cope with whatever may come.
Asking this in the name of Jesus the Lord
Amen
:pray: :pray: :pray:

Father I lift this dear one to You. Bring about what would delight and make her heart to dance. Grant Your grace upon her to override anything that would detract from her seeing Your purpose and plan. Grant Your grace to strengthen and sustain her and to bear what she must, in the name of Yeshua, amen.

Father, I pray with all that I have in me that you would give ear to the deepfelt need. You have a father's heart for all human life. You knew the name of the child she lost and you called that name softly. You hold the life of any future children in your hand. From a father's hand to a mother's heart... please bless your child with a child of her own.

"If any two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or more are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them." (Matt. 18:19-20).

Thank you all. I've read this verse over and over, contemplated it, meditated on it. It's the closest thing to peace I get these days. This thing is tearing me apart.

Sweetheart, read Psalm 113 - there is nothing at all to be accomplished by you not having children!!! Get rid of the thought that you haven't learned enough pain and heartbreak - I can feel your heart bleeding from here! You need to just praise the Lord - don't ask, don't apologize, just praise Him. Let Him minister His peace to you, and fill you with His joy. You have suffered a terrible loss, one that still too many people (especially in the medical profession) don't recognize the import of. But the good news is He will give you beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning (read Isaiah 61:3). He will give you a beautiful, healthy baby, and you will have a strong pregnancy, that is His will for you, just as it was for Hannah. Fear not and be of good courage, dear one, He has heard you and as you delight yourself in the Lord He will give you the desires of your heart.

I am still praying for you. May His peace and inexplicable grace descend on you like a warm blanket. And through the stillness, rest in Him and know that He is God. Father may it be so, in the name of Yeshua, amen.

Love,
Brenda

Thank you all, again and again, over and over, and from the bottom of my heart for your prayers and for your verses. I'm grateful for your fellowship and support. I'm feeling a little more at peace today. I think it's actually helping. I read these verses late last night, and they've been comforting me too.

"'Is anything too hard for the Lord? At the appointed time I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.'" Genesis 18:14

"And the Lord visited Sarah as He had said, and the Lord did for Sarah as He had spoken. For Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him." Genesis 21:1-2

"And Sarah said, 'God has made me laugh, and all who hear will laugh with me.' She also said, 'Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age.'" Genesis 21: 6-7


Only 5 more days until I know again. I'm determined to wait the extra day to test. I only have one test left from my last batch, and I don't want to waste it. That's one thing that's been helping me hold out all week.

I hope one day I can look back at this past few months and laugh at how stressed I was.

Lord please be with dicentra as she's going through a rough time as you put your arms around her for hope as well as dependence and help her to look up to you as you will provide for her in your time and will. Help her to know that she isn't going through this alone and that she needs to have her family with her. We uplift your name, amen.
