Prayer request for the newest baby.

Let me tell you about my little sister Kim.
Kim is my smart, beautiful, precious sister, who keeps a secret like a vault, lives life with quiet dignity and has just received news that is rocking her world.
She is expecting, due in November, and is the type of girl that makes pregnancy adorable.
Yesterday, she found out that the doctors are pretty sure the baby has spina bifida. But there may be other complications. We are waiting to hear what the doctors will say after some more testing.

Now, I know without a doubt that Kim and her husband Jeff are the people who would be the most precious parents to a special needs child. I know that they believe that God is good. That God is in control, and that whatever happens, they are going to praise Him.
This will not crush them.
This will not break them
I am certain.
But I also know that it is difficult and terrifying to rest without answers.

Please pray with my family:

that Kim and Jeff would have peace and wisdom.
That they would rest and be permeated with sweet joy.
That the Lord would bring life and healing according to His nature.
That our heavenly Father would be so close to that baby that he/she would be like Moses coming down from the mountain, bright with shekinah glory.

Kim and Jeff, we wait with you, we pray with you, we love you. Whatever this means, we will walk with you through it!
