I'm so happy you trusted God! What a blessing that boy is. :) I have never had that situation. I had to trust Him completely after my second miscarriage that He had everything in His plan and I would be fine no matter what. What a tough thing to learn.

But we are never alone and God is more than willing to walk those places with us.

So many young people and older ones a like who believe they can forego bearing the burden of their consequences. However, abortion is NEVER a victimless situation. The mother suffers whether it's immediately apparent or doesn't surface for years. I hope this young person will get into counseling and learn better what it is she's looking for.Tracie Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09383366506196971684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-14045907051609546402013-12-16T18:58:06.669-05:002013-12-16T18:58:06.669-05:00Patty, I'm sure Carrie has entered you in the ...Patty, I'm sure Carrie has entered you in the contest.

First, I'm like "whoah, let me process dude." and then also I wanted to make sure-- though two strange things that had happened the day prior (loss of desire to eat in the middle of the night and this strange feeling of disconnect) told me it was likely true plus I watched the ultrasound), but you know, I've heard of babies seeming to be dead and alive later, so I waited the weekend and required him to do another ultrasound. And the baby had shrunk visibly which gave me peace to know that we hadn't made a mistake. And the female nurse took extra time with me and got us some lovely 3D picture of him that helped so much to know that he was here for a short time. I had liked Tracie's Amazon page already. :)Melissa Jagearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439765292197683329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-1041891641528789852013-12-16T17:30:58.856-05:002013-12-16T17:30:58.856-05:00WOW, TRACIE ... what an AMAZING story, my friend!!...WOW, TRACIE ... what an AMAZING story, my friend!! Sounds like a book to me ... ;) Thanks for sharing it with us -- VERY inspirational, especially at this time of year! And 99 books???? DOUBLE WOW!! <br /><br />Carrie, your story is inspirational, too, my friend. My niece's kidney was damaged by an amnio that my sister didn't want to have, and is now on dialysis, waiting for a kidney. That amnio test has caused both my niece and my sister a lot of trials in their lives, so you were VERY wise!!<br /><br />Hugs!!<br />JulieJulie Lessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00406395645316139292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-73498817302616297002013-12-16T17:18:34.522-05:002013-12-16T17:18:34.522-05:00I don't have any children, but I did want to s...I don't have any children, but I did want to say thanks for your testimony and thanks for listening to God.<br />susanlulu@yahoo.comsusanluluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13647587383680159584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-56689939613166154382013-12-16T11:27:22.377-05:002013-12-16T11:27:22.377-05:00No, I never had a doctor recommend a test that wou...No, I never had a doctor recommend a test that would threaten my unborn child's life nor have I ever had a doctor or anyone want me to terminate a pregnancy. With that being said, I just want to thank Tracie for sharing her powerful testimony. When we rely on others instead of God that can be a dangerous situation. Tracie your post was very touching and brought me to tears. My heart aches for a family member that did terminate a pregnancy not because of any medical reason but because the doctor thought she was too young to raise a child. The parents agreed with the doctor and their grandchild was terminated. Just two years later this same young person was pregnant again. What lesson did she learn? Like I said, my heart aches.<br /><br />Blessings and Merry Christmas!<br />Judy B<br />judyjohn2004(at)yahoo(dot)com<br />LJudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15662361293867445784noreply@blogger.com
