I get many "forwards" -- some funny, some touching, some political, and some with lessons that are truly needed to be learned and remembered. Here's one such item that I would like to share with others.
 
Romans 8:26-29 (from the Amplified Bible) So too the [Holy] Spirit comes to our aid and bears us up in our weakness; for we do not know what prayer to offer nor how to offer it worthily as we ought, but the Spirit Himself goes to meet our supplication and pleads in our behalf with unspeakable yearnings and groanings too deep for utterance. And He Who searches the hearts of men knows what is in the mind of the [Holy] Spirit [what His intent is], because the Spirit intercedes and pleads [before God] in behalf of the saints according to and in harmony with God's will. We are assured and know that [God being a partner in their labor] all things work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good to and for those who love God and are called according to [His] design and purpose. For those whom He foreknew [of whom He was aware and loved beforehand], He also destined from the beginning [foreordaining them] to be molded into the image of His Son [and share inwardly His likeness], that He might become the firstborn among many brethren.

Me, too! Love you.
@BeeyondSight - Thanks for your encouragement, Bee. I'm just now getting back (as you can see). I'm on my way over to visit you now.
We are doing the baby bottle thing from Mother's Day to Father's Day, and then the "baby shower" on.....you guessed it.....LABOR DAY!!!
@SingingMom - We do the baby bottle thing during the same time period. Cute idea having the baby shower for Labor Day..... ah, but I might have guessed it, my clever friend!
I am so glad God looks past my wants and sees my need! I am so blessed that He is totally trustworthy. Now that I have walked with Him many years, I know that trusting His ways is the best way for me. Thanks for your prayers, Carolyn. We really are in a hard place, but we know God is able. Blessings to you and your sweet husband.
