(on waiting)

note: not of expert
only
 often opportunity for practice
the baby "asked of God"
was born to them
and lungs not full developed
nor breathing.
We can hardly breath ourselves
as we pray
"please Jesus..."
and waiting sometimes
"feels"
like 400 years of silence
(even with the written WORD)
we go
to visit...
walk slowly
and "see"
God still gives "courage"
"can I take a picture of the light, mom?"
all along the way
chairs
and rooms
for waiting
remind
not to miss the view
or
wonder
along the way

he is doing better!
this little one
who has brought so many
to prayer
and wait

it's ok
sometimes to dance
down the hallways
of unknown


all
ALL
is in God's hands
 even traffic moves slow
 and stops
 the playground through the trees...
will he breath
and one day play?
 two weeks go slow
LY by
and to a full stop.
(Some waiting goes on
and on.)
This little one is home!

  2. I assume the baby is home with his/her parents doing OK? Was the baby a premie? Pray for Rafael who was born at 27 weeks last week- 800 grams (not quite a kilo) and isn't breathing on his own yet. He is holding his own but do pray for the family. They lost their first baby boy as a premie, their second a little girl is in prekinder with the twins.
