Praying that Jesus' arms are around you all right now and that He will heal Jude.

I remember having my babies whisked away to the NICU and the difficult roller coaster of the following two weeks, but never decisions like you are facing. However, we learned in that time and we know to be true that God is ALWAYS faithful, loving, and sovereign. Might you be comforted and held in His arms of love and might you and all the doctors be given His wisdom! Praying for all four of you and your families! Might God be glorified as you continue to cling to and trust Him!<br />Love and prayers - Jen, Brian, Sarah, and EvanJen Kanenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166441444391633730.post-21941770566030827992011-08-17T12:53:05.309-06:002011-08-17T12:53:05.309-06:00Lifting you and sweet baby Jude up in prayers.
