Prayers...

I woke Saturday night around 12 for the all too familiar pregnancy bathroom breaks. I happen to check my phone and was suddenly shocked at the message before me. My dear friend Kimbo had received a call from Julee's's mother informing her that Matt (Julee's husband) had died. Little was known, but my stomach was in knots. I waivered in and out of sleep, burdened to prayer for my friend, sorority sister, and sister in Christ. The thought of her burden is unfathomable. I trust that God is sovereign, but I sure don't always understand Him. Please join in prayer for Julee, Preslee, and both extended families. 



Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. 

2 Corinthians 1:3-5
