    Joshua I am so very, very, sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my prayers.
    I may not know the right words to say to comfort you at this time - but I can cry with you as I hold you up in prayer.

    Rob

    Joshua, I am very heart broken to hear of your loss. My prayers will be with you.

    Remember always that we serve a loving God who is in control of all things.

    Once when I was going through a dificult time, I was talking to a pastors wife whose family are good friends of mine.
    Aftrer I had told her what I was going through, she point to the sky and quoted Psalm 19: 1-2

    The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
    Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.

    It had an amazing calming effect on me and I hope that as you remember the greatness of our Sovereign Lord, the Almighty God of the universe, you will find comfort in His Grace.

    Dale

    Oh, Joshua. I am so so sorry to hear this. I have enjoyed watching you count down the days, and I am so shocked and saddened. I cannot imagine what you are going through, but my heart aches with you and Kristi. I will be lifting you up often. :(

    I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities;.....Ps 31:7
    May God give you help and strength even tomorrow, we are praying for you.

    Yes, Bob, I feel the same way. I too am counting down the days so it hits home.
    I haven't told my wife about this post just because I don't want to upset her.

    Joshua, you are in my prayers!

    Oh, Joshua! I'm SO sorry!! Words can't even begin to help but I know that the God of all Comfort can. I went through this 3 years ago with a dear, dear friend and sat with them weeping holding their daughter Elizabeth, who passed away at 39 weeks. Prayers for you and your wife are being said right now........please accept our sympathies.

    PS - I just wanted to add this link - it is a print that was very comforting to me in my early losses (lost 2 babies - one at 8 weeks gestation and one at 10 weeks) and my friend who lost her daughter at 39 weeks purchased the print for her bedroom. http://bgray.com/godofallcomfort.html

    In the book of Colossians---the Apostle Paul links the Christ to His Church--so close that when the church suffers---its as if Christ suffers! See Colossians 1:24 May the Lord Jesus Christ be the one comforter we seek---when you and your dear wife are suffering---the Lord Jesus is experiencing the same with you--we're praying for you, Brother Joshua!!

    I am so very sorry to hear this. Im praying for you both as well. My husband and I have gone through this as well, so I feel for you both deeply.

    God is strong enough to get you through.
