Well, it's here. June. The month I have been dreading as much as I dreaded November. My first glory baby was due on November 30th. My second was due on June 15th. The ultrasound that showed our first baby had passed away was last June 27th and my d&e was June 29th. Yikes. The anticipation of the next couple of weeks will probably be harder than the actual days. Grief is so weird. I wish I knew how to do it well. All I can do is cling to the Word....
"So we don't look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on
things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the
things we cannot see will last forever." -2 Cor.4:18
I have hope in the things unseen, and for that I am so, so thankful. I am so glad that my two babies are living in "the unseen" right now with their Savior! Hallelujah!
I love that song! I remember loving it before I was even married. I thought I knew what she meant but I really didn't until I lost our baby. I'm so sorry you guys have gone through this. I wish I had words of wisdom but honestly I just don't. Let yourself grieve...let yourself remember and think about what could have been...God can handle it all. But then move on and look to the future. All I can say on the other side of it all, is that although I still don't know every reason why God chose for me to lose that baby, I can see growth in myself. I can know that I wouldn't have my Keaton. So although it was so painful, I can see good that came from it. I'm praying for the same for you.
