Psalm 91

I had some bleeding last night. Not a lot but some. We went in for a blood test this morning, but it probably won't be in until Monday. With no cramping and the bleeding stopped a few minutes after it started, my nurse practitioner was not that concerned. JB and I are just in a "wait and see" phase now. It could be nothing. It could be the loss of one baby. It could be the loss of both babies (if there are two.)

My mother sent me the words to Psalm 91 with words of the bleeding "scare." I am clinging to these words today. I truly do know God has our family in the palm of His hand.

1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High, who abides in the shadow of the Almighty, 2 will say to the LORD, "My refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust." 3 For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence; 4 he will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler. 5 You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day, 6 nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor the destruction that wastes at noonday. 7 A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you. 8 You will only look with your eyes and see the recompense of the wicked. 9 Because you have made the LORD your refuge, the Most High your habitation, 10 no evil shall befall you, no scourge come near your tent. 11 For he will give his angels charge of you to guard you in all your ways. 12 On their hands they will bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone. 13 You will tread on the lion and the adder, the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot. 14 Because he cleaves to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. 15 When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will rescue him and honor him. 16 With long life I will satisfy him, and show him my salvation.

If it helps at all, I bled with my one and only pregnancy. Went in for an ultrasound to hopefully see a heartbeat... And saw three! :). Praying for you!
