Part 2:
His hand was so evident throughout the pregnancy. On the day that would have been the due date for one of the babies, I had an ultrasound and learned our baby was a girl. A day that would have been a reminder of loss, was instead a day of joy and anticipation. Then, she was born 8 days before the anniversary of the miscarriage. In my husband's culture, the 8th day is a special day to celebrate the birth of the child. So, again, a day that might have brought sadness was a day of joy instead!
Another thing that has comforted my soul concerning the miscarriages was knowing our Heavenly Father understood my love for the babies in my womb. Only He can preserve life, I did not have that power or responsibility. The children are His. I watched a video testimony of a lady who aborted, maybe 2 babies and tried to abort her third. She tried 3 or 4 times, but even though they tried to scrape the baby from her womb, they were unsuccessful! She then decided to let the baby live. Continued

I don't know why, but I sense today that I'm to share something personal as it may be an encouragement to a sister going through something similar. My first three pregnancies ended in miscarriage. I had desired to one day be a mom for about as long as I can remember, so it was painful to lose these babies. I struggled with thoughts of wondering what I'd done wrong. Why do others who don't even want a child seem to have no problem? Did God not see me as qualified to be a mother? After the third miscarriage we were recommended to go to a fertility center, but neither my husband nor I had peace to do that. We realized in God's Word that He so often opened and closed the womb, so we took it to Him even more in prayer. I conceived again, even before it would seem physically likely. This time I didn't miscarry. I did battle thoughts of fear that it would happen again, but had to realize that even if that would happen God still loved me and His plans for me are for good and not ill. Continued

Recently so many alarming things are happening all over the earth and it seems to be increasing in frequency and intensity. There is so much suffering. Anxiety wants to creep in. BUT, we are not forgotten. We are not forsaken. The One who put breath in our lungs is unchanging and faithful. Our hope is in Him. Two days ago He supernaturally protected my husband and several others from serious danger in some river rapids while on a raft. Our friend distinctly heard a whistle three times, although no one blew a whistle. The timing was exactly what was needed to prevent them from a terrible water accident.

Job 38:4-7
4 “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? Tell me, if you understand. 5 Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it? 6 On what were its footings set, or who laid its cornerstone— 7 while the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy?

I don't know this person, but his message is that there's power and victory in the Kingdom of Light. Jesus is not defeated. He's not retreating.

16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
