Monday August 22 my doctor confirmed that we were 7 weeks and 1 day pregnant. Monday August 29, after several events unfolded over the week my doctor confirmed we had miscarried over the weekend. Something we saw coming......
There are so many details to fill you in on (how things played out) and so many things my heart needs to say (what the Lord has done and what he is doing) but for right now this is all I can offer. Before our app. yesterday morning Clark and I fervently prayed for the Lord to breath life in our baby knowing the pregnancy had stopped progressing a couples weeks before but I also knew what my body was doing and had to face reality. We knew what to expect at the app. - no heartbeat.
This week has been a week of nothing but lows but for the first time in my walk with the Lord I experienced Philippians 4:7 - And THE PEACE of God that transcends all understanding, will guard your heart and your minds in Christ Jesus. - The Lord has been so good to me this week and allowing me to hurt and grieve (and be mad) but to also have an incredible peace that He is in control and will be our great comfort. -Psalm 119:50;76- Thursday I physically felt the Lord's presence and physically felt Him holding my heart and guarding my mind; preparing me for what lay ahead. The Lord has never been more real to me.
So many things we would covet your prayers on but for now, as we are spent. We ask that you would pray that the Lord would continue to hold our hearts and that we would seek where to go from here.
We are hopeful for the future.

Last November/December I had an unexpected pregnancy followed by an unexpected miscarriage. Just this morning I was thinking that if the miscarriage had not happened we would have a new born with us now. My heart was kind of sad. It's a strange experience, but one so many of us have gone through. Praying for you friend. The Lord will sustain and provide for all your needs. He is faithful!
Been there. It hurts, hurts, hurts. But that's one more thing to look forward to in heaven. Thinking about and praying for you guys.
I'm so so sorry! I will be praying for you! How wonderful that you have experienced the presence of God!
Just read on FB, and then your blog. We will pray. God is faithful and He cares. Sometimes we don't have answers to questions in this life. We can trust in all things............
Love & blessings,
Aunt Rita Kay & Uncle David

We've been there too, Megan. I'm so thankful you can take comfort in knowing your friends can offer their prayer and empathy and can knowingly walk this road with you. Praise the Lord for His ever-present comfort! Praying for you!
I'm so sorry, and praying for you and Clark. Can't wait to see what God has in store for you. Sending love your way!
