Sunday Scriptures & Prayers

I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised...
Psalm 18: 1-6

Remember last week, when I asked all of you to pray for Vanessa pregnant at 26 weeks...Well she was able to go home a few days later only to be rushed back to the hospital on Friday afternoon. After a long and stressful weekend she delivered her baby girl by emergency c-section tonight at around 8:45 PM. Layla Teresa weighed in at 2lbs! Mom is doing well and Layla is in the NICU on a vent, but so far it is on the lowest setting and she is doing good! My best friend Natalie is the proud Godmother.

CONGRATULATIONS to Vanessa, Steve and BIG Sister Isabella!

God is good and they have been blessed with a miracle!
I hope everyone will keep them in your prayers, they have a long road ahead...
Pray for a speedy recovery for Vanessa, for Layla to become bigger and stronger! For their insurance issues to straighten out, that Vanessa will be home by Friday for Isabella's 2nd birthday and of course for Steve who is REALLY outnumbered now :)
