And Now, to Weep

My friends Pat and Shannon lost the babies today. Twins. Barbara Walter’s was once asked what was the most sorrowful thing in life and she replied “the loss of a child.” It marks you like little else. It would be good to send up your prayers.

    Rachelle,

    This is such a difficult reality to accept. The heaviness weighs on one’s heart to read about your friends’ loss.

    I remember reading a similar post about it. If you’re interested, here it is: http://www.superherodesigns.com/journal/archives/000271.html

    Hoping the Lord will be with your friends at this time.

    (I borrowed the book you recommended a while ago: Susan Howatch’s The Wonder Worker . It was great. Thanks for the recommendation.)

    Thanks Rachelle. Thanks, Dilys. We really appreciate your prayers and can handle all you want to send out.

    Grace and peace.
