My Dearest Jeremiah,
When I read your daddy’s recent entry titled “ These moments”, tears could not stop pouring down. How I long so much for the Lord to make you well like your brothers. How I long to see you being cradled in my arms and walking and enjoying the sunshine in the Park . I truly long for you to be part of our family and the family of God whom everyone is praying so fervently for – for you to partake in our lives.
I never knew we already have so much love for you till your daddy’s words touched my soul and reminded me of all the unforgettable memories I had with your brothers. My prayer now is you will live and grow strong like a champion of our Lord inside me. You have been so active and responsive these few days. I would like to think you are Happy inside me, Kicking and Praising Jesus who never ceases to be with you. I pray HE will knit you into a beautiful and wonderful being so that your every existence only bring Glory to HIS NAME.
We await you being born if it is HIS WILL. We can ony Trust and Hope in Faith for God’s plan to unfold.
I love you very much. I love your sweet brothers very much too. You are our 3 precious sons; Precious gifts from Heaven .
With Lots of Love,
Mummy
Daphne, your love for Jeremiah has give us the strength to wait in hope for the arrival of this wonderful child and to feel the presence of our Almighty God. Right now only God's word will uphold us together. Be strong mummy!
ReplyDeletePsalms 139 (NKJV)
O LORD, You have searched me and known me.
You know my sitting down and my rising up;
You understand my thought afar off.
You comprehend my path and my lying down,
And are acquainted with all my ways.
For there is not a word on my tongue,
But behold, O LORD, You know it altogether.
You have hedged me behind and before,
And laid Your hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
It is high, I cannot attain it.
Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
If I ascend into heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.
If I take the wings of the morning,
And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
Even there Your hand shall lead me,
And Your right hand shall hold me.
If I say, "Surely the darkness shall fall on me,"
Even the night shall be light about me;
Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You,
But the night shines as the day;
The darkness and the light are both alike to You.
For You formed my inward parts;
You covered me in my mother's womb.
I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Marvelous are Your works,
And that my soul knows very well.
My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.
And in Your book they all were written,
The days fashioned for me,
When as yet there were none of them.
How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!
How great is the sum of them!
If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand;
When I awake, I am still with You*
Search me, O God, and know my heart;
Try me, and know my anxieties;
And see if there is any wicked way in me,
And lead me in the way everlasting.
Daphne,
ReplyDeleteYour willingness of longing and waiting for the arrival your baby Jeremiah, has bond all of us closer to the presence of Our Almighty God and to each other. Now only the Word of God will keep you and your family. CATHERINE AND I WILL ALWAYS STAND BY YOUR SIDE!
Psalm 139
1 O LORD, you have searched me
and you know me.
2 You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.
3 You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.
4 Before a word is on my tongue
you know it completely, O LORD.
5 You hem me in—behind and before;
you have laid your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too lofty for me to attain.
7 Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?
8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, [a] you are there.
9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
10 even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.
11 If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,"
12 even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.
13 For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
16 your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
17 How precious to [b] me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
18 Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand.
When I awake,
I am still with you.
19 If only you would slay the wicked, O God!
Away from me, you bloodthirsty men!
20 They speak of you with evil intent;
your adversaries misuse your name.
21 Do I not hate those who hate you, O LORD,
and abhor those who rise up against you?
22 I have nothing but hatred for them;
I count them my enemies.
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
24 See if there is any offensive way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting.
