Day 26: Tender Mercies

I had another sleepless night tossing and turning.
Upset tummy I thought.
By 7:30 I was leaking more blood than I have up to this point and cramping.
Yes-not good.

But I have to tell you something.

I was so calm. Like--unreal, this isn't normal kind of calm.
And if you know me--you know that that isn't like me.
I just knew that it was going to be okay, and I wasn't ruffled by it.
It was unreal.

I know that this was a tender mercy from Heavenly Father. I don't think there is any logical reason why I am still here, well and pregnant except for the explanation I've given.

And I want anyone who reads this to know that none of this, absolutely none of this is me. He is the reason we are still here. He is the reason I was calm this morning, He is in charge.

Thank you for your continued prayers. We needed them so badly today.

It would be lovely to look into the future and know what was going to happen.
But we can't, and if we could it wouldn't make me realize my dependence upon the Lord.
I would be less grateful when miracles like today occur.

I am so grateful for Him today. I am so grateful for your prayers today.

I think I'll go get some shut eye.
It's been a long day.
Love you all.
Hillary
