Storm The Gates!!!

Please pray with me:

Heavenly Father, I come before you now in humble adoration of You, and in awe of the vastness of Your love. I am so thankful that You have allowed me the gift of having Isabella and her mom and dad in my life. I thank you for Bella’s life. I thank You for the joy and the sweetness that she has brought into the lives of so many others, even around the world, as people follow her journey. I thank You for the gift that Bella is to her parents, and for the lessons that she has already taught them, and will continue to teach them throughout her life, as we know that parents learn much more from children than children learn from parents.

Father, I acknowledge that You are the Great Physician, and You are the Healer. You are Isabella’s Creator, and her Lord and Savior. You, and only You, Lord, can heal the disease with which Bella has been afflicted. My trust is in You, all day long. I ask You, Lord, even now, to place your hand of blessing on the doctors, the nurses, the family members who will be caring for Bella in the coming days, weeks, and months. I ask that You use the donor cells that Bella will receive as an instrument of Your miraculous love and Your mighty power.

Lord, I know that you are the source of strength, and I ask You to give that strength to Bella and to her parents as they face the long journey ahead. You are also the source of knowledge, and I ask You to grant knowledge and wisdom to Bella’s doctors and nurses, and help them to discern exactly the best way to care for Bella and all of her needs.

I ask all these things, not because I deserve them, or Bella deserves them, or her family deserves them. I ask these things because…as great and consuming as my love for Isabella is…..I know that You love her even more. I know that she is Your precious child, and that her suffering grieves You as it does me. I know that You wish to see Bella made whole.

Finally, God, I pray for Elizabeth and for her unborn baby. I pray that You place Your hand of protection on them. I ask that you keep them both safe during this time of stress and difficulty.

I ask all this in the name of Jesus, our Savior.

Amen.
