LOSING A PREGNANCY

Dear God, Please ease my pain, my heartache and grief. Right now I feel so utterly alone. I carried life and potential within me; it felt so special, I tingled with excitement at every moment, and that potential, that life, is no more. I dreamed and I planned, I hoped for and waited; in my mind it was so real I could almost hold it in my arms. I don’t understand why I had to go through this challenge, the highs and lows in such a short time. I wanted this baby with all of my heart and soul. I had so much love and hope to wrap it in completely forevermore. And now all I feel is a tremendous void within. Please let me heal, let me get back to my strength. Please turn my pain into prayers for life to enter me once more in the right time. I want to build up my Jewish family, my motives are pure, and I can’t do it without Your blessing and help. I need You now more than ever. Your daughter, A hopeful future mother of Israel.
