When there are no comforting words....





What do you do? I have basically been consumed with baby Stellan for a week now. My heart aches at what MckMama is going through. Jen and I have e-mailed each other twice. Although, at this point, "I am praying", "Still on my knees", "Hang in there", "Don't give up", and the infamous, "Oh, I am so sorry" just sounds plain stupid.
I can not, nor will I ever in a million years try to ACT like I even know what she is going through. I am sad, sad that I don't see God moving (at least how I want Him to), yet I still am not wavering that He is Almighty, and only He can move on Stellan's behalf. If you have not grabbed Stellan's button please do so. Please pray. Please put him and Jennifer on the prayer list in your church, home groups, MOPS, etc...
If you haven't seen Stellan's gallery, be thinking of some way creative to display his precious name and get it to Jen. The Chief and I are thinking hard of some way, to do it ourselves, and creatively.
So here I am and this is where I am...I will end this post the same way I end every e-mail I send MckMama:
Expecting Nothing less than a Miracle!

I love that picture of him with the letters. Have you sent it to her? So cool! I haven't seen his gallery yet but I have been stalking her blog and praying.

My whole family knows about Stellan and I keep giving them updates.

I can't imagine either. The closest I've been was at ER with a very sick baby (he had RSV). I can't imagine being there day after day and watching him suffer like that.

We know that God is near to her, and what a blessing to have the opportunity to pray for her, since we can't do anything else.

Praying so hard for that little guy and the family.

Thanks so much for the comment on my blog- We don't know yet if the baby is a boy or a girl. Next Wednesday we find out : ). I just started following Jen's blog through Angie's blog and both of them blow me away with their faith.

I just keep praying that the Lord breathes life into little Stellan's heart and strengthens Jen moment by moment.
