Brothers and Sisters, Friends and Supporters, God has given us a wonderful gift. This gift is small, and at the moment only is 2 centimeters long, but this little gift will, with God’s grace, grow into a child ready to burst onto the scene of this present world. We were able to go to a local physician who gave us the wonderful news that Amy and Jacob are having a baby!
We have both had much cause for joy and sorrow throughout our relationship. Even through our early marriage we have had ups and downs. Many of you have been with us and shared in our mutual happiness and sadness. We invite you to share in the joy of this wonderful gift of God by praising Him and celebrating His goodness. As Romans 12:15 says “Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn”. Praise God for a time of rejoicing!
Of course a baby means we will need all sorts of prayers, both for us to be strong during these next months, (and the rest of our lifetime), and for our unborn child. There are all sorts of wonderful little details that the Lord will no doubt figure out in His own time. Prayer for us during those times when we are trying to figure out those little details is absolutely needed.
