Last Wednesday, January 6, 2010 we expected to have our first ultrasound picture. Instead our family experienced the loss of this much prayed for child through miscarriage. Beautifully, Christopher & Marah, chose to name their child, Owen Christopher Reeves. They trust that he will ever be before the Lord and serve Him all the days of his existance. Praise God that we are forever and we will see that child someday. I hope he will be proud of all of his family in the way that we follow our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Only these words shared....

When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,
It is well, it is well with my soul.

It is well (it is well),with my soul (with my soul),
It is well, it is well with my soul.

Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.

My sin, oh the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin, not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to His cross, and I bear it no more,
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!

For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live:
If Jordan above me shall roll,
No pain shall be mine, for in death as in life
Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul.

And Lord haste the day, when my faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend,
Even so, it is well with my soul.
