October 15

Today, October 15, is the National Day of Remembrance for pregnancy and infant loss. In honor of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day, it has been suggested that grieving parents and family members light a candle at 7 p.m. in their respective time zones to create a wave of light around the world in memory of babies lost to pregnancy and infant loss. Would you join me in this today?

When we experienced a loss of a pregnancy in February I found great comfort in Angie’s blog - www.audreycaroline.blogspot.com - because she was a woman working out her faith and love for God in spite of the terrible situation she was in – pregnant with a baby girl they knew couldn’t survive outside the womb.

On her site today she has asked all who have experienced a loss of a pregnancy/child to post a comment and she will be in prayer for each one. Last I checked there were over 1200 comments. My heart is heavy for all women who have suffered a loss of a precious little one. I will be praying for these women today, that God will be real to those who still struggle, that He would comfort those who continue to grieve and He would protect and guard the hearts of those of us that have been given an opportunity to carry life again.

If you have been personaly affected by a loss and would like me to pray for you specifically, please leave a comment and I will add you to my prayer list.
