Praise God

A completely natural recovery from this miscarriage is what I have been trusting God for, and today I received the phone call. After 10 weeks of blood draws and other not so fun details that you don't want to know about, I am finally and officially back to a pre-pregnant state. Praise God! And that is exactly what I exclaimed to the nurse on the other end of the telephone today. I know that the prayers of many have strengthened Zach and I since January. Let me just say, I am so thankful for the church. Not just NRC (though I love our church dearly!), but the body of Christ as a whole. I can't even begin to tell you how many distinct times over the past 10 weeks I have been overwhelmed by His love...and most often, it came through the encouraging word of a sister. Simply put, God loves to love through people. Let us not forget that we are doing His great work by simply loving.
