The hope that Jesus empowers you with is so very evident. Praying for you guys. (And LOVE the nursery. Oh. My. Word. Might have to redo one of Lizzy's walls and do the shelves.)Angie Bentleyhttp://www.scottandangie.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166441444391633730.post-2219811050603370532011-08-27T21:03:37.905-06:002011-08-27T21:03:37.905-06:00Amen.

What a blessing that God chose you to have little Jude. God is good. We are praying for you all. For peace...for His hands to hold you. Giving you a virtual hug friend. <br /><br />P.s.

You all are in the palm of Jesus' hands and I am praying that you don't miss Caleb too much! I was so encouraged myseld when I read your blog on hope. I needed to be reminded of that. Praise God that you are able to stay at the Ronald McDonald house and I am praying for your fianances as well. Take care of each other and give Jude a kiss for me.julie wolfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07469539114374060762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166441444391633730.post-3235139184597145022011-08-27T17:54:52.885-06:002011-08-27T17:54:52.885-06:00Mandy-Yesterday when I was thinking of you I could...Mandy-Yesterday when I was thinking of you I couldn't get the word "hope" out of my head. I was thinking about the hope necklace from our infertility days and the meaning it held then. Now that hope has come full circle as we trust Jesus with the lives our precious little men. I love you! <br /><br />I'm not sure if you remember, but the Lord laid Romans 5:2-5 on my heart then and I'm praying it for you now. "And we boast in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us."<br />Love, Laura<br /><br />PS-Happy Happy Birthday, dear friendAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166441444391633730.post-45487252153796010442011-08-27T14:20:54.897-06:002011-08-27T14:20:54.897-06:00Thanks Mandy and Brandon for sharing this journey....Thanks Mandy and Brandon for sharing this journey. We are praying for you all along the way and it so helps to know what to pray and how to pray. Thankfully the Holy Spirit always fills in the gaps too! That hymn has always been my favorite since I was a little girl. Extra special meaning now. What a challenge to each of us.

My heart aches as I read your story, as it is a purely sobering perspective of this amazing Jesus we serve, where our blessings lie, and how our comforts and blessings in the life are not our own...we simply cannot take what he has for us for granted. Your story bleeds the Gospel and the love of Jesus. May little Jude and your family's journey greatly impact others for Jesus. Thank you for allowing me to be on this journey with you. We will continue to pray for his improving health, for Caleb's time in Illinois, and your stay at the Ronald McDonald house!<br />KellyKellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13627713944821896096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166441444391633730.post-23347967742467461402011-08-27T08:09:00.607-06:002011-08-27T08:09:00.607-06:00Friends,

When I wake up to pump or feed Evelyn each night, I first turn on the computer to check your blog. That way I will know what to pray about as I pump. I love doing it - it is such a quiet time with no other distractions, and I feel like God can hear me better (which isn't true, but it seems like it). Thank you for inviting me on your journey, it is a privilege to spend time with you in spirit each night.<br /><br />Caleb - I have a present for you, buddy! I'll send it to you when you get home from Illinois.Kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05991423803563559093noreply@blogger.com
