Please Pray
Ok, this is one of those times that I have to admit that I am totally lost as to what God is doing. It is almost 3 in the morning and we are all trying to calm down. Mom just woke me up and said that God had answered prayer Hopkins just called her and said they had a liver and kidney for her and that surgery was scheduled for 6:30 this morning for mom. As I was waking Laura up, Hopkins called back and said that it was not going to happen. I am not sure why, and neither is mom. So we are all trying to calm down. Please pray for mom and dad as I know that emotionally, they are drained. Mom even said "How do you calm down after that call?"

I'm not sure if you guys know that Jennifer had our little girl last Monday morning at 2:02 am.
What is important to know here, is this, this was one and a half weeks before Jennifer's due date.
About 2 before that, while is was having my time with the LORD in the morning,
I got a word from HIM. God spoke to me that morning. He let me know that everything was ok
with the baby. He also let me know that she would be born in TWO WEEKS. I shared this revelation
with Jennifer and our family. I think it was almost passed off as some type of hype from a fortune
teller or something like that. Then we went to the doctors for her pre-natal visit, with a report that
everything was on course. Then one week later for another Doctor visit, and that same day for a
non-stress test at the hospital, both saying to same thing, (everything is on schedule.(8/22/2008).. The doctor
even went as far as to say that Jennifer may deliver after her September 4th due date.
WELL last Sunday 8/24/2008 at 6:30 in the morning Jennifer walked in and informed me that her water had broke.
While I was nervously hurrying around to get us out the door I said my morning prayer, with this answer.
Everything will be fine, I told you that she would deliver in two weeks, but you believed the world,
doctors,other family members, and a hospital.
Then in the gentlest ,most reassuring and calming voice that I have ever experienced
HE said,
"Remember that I am GOD and, I AM IN CONTROL."
Well this is one week after Christin Elizabeth has joined us, she and Jennifer are both doing great.
I thanked God for the lesson that he brought me through, and that he was faithful to his word even
when I was not faithful to him. We do serve an awesome God. I only tell you this so that you may
draw some hope from my story. HE did not let me down and he will not let you down, If he told you that
your prayers would be answered, they will. His plans for you will be fulfilled.
Our Prayers are with You'
Jack, Jennifer & Christin
God Bless
Thank you for this unique way in which we can bring your family into our home and lives. We have been blessed these some thirty-eight years of laughing, crying, sharing and worshiping together. Through it all we have beheld the Lord's faithfulness. He is the glue that holds us together and brings us through every crisis. We will continue in prayer for you all. Love----Paul and Harriett
Hi there Sweetie, I read the last two blog entries earlier this evening and I've been rolling everything over and over in my mind. I believe that by Tuesday afternoon, you will have the answer. In fact, I believe that you may either already have your answer or are extremely close in the decision-making process. I'm urging everyone who reads this comment to pray over the Livingston family on Monday, September 1st at 6:00 pm. "For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them." Whether you're having dinner, driving back from a family picnic, or doing your household chores, if you could pause for a few minutes and ask the Lord to give them clear guidance as to which direction to follow. I absolutely know what a disappointment last night turned out to be, but when the trials and tests come along, He is watching our reactions. We need to get back up on our knees and keep on trusting. You all are very much loved!!!
We are definitely praying for you guys. The roller coaster ride has to be excruciating. Will check in here frequently. We love you guys.
Hello Sweet Rheba! How are you feeling today? I guess today is the day you make the big decision, huh? You know that obviously whatever decision you make, we will all be behind you 100%. God has been with you and will be with you every step of the way. We are continuing to pray.......I love you!!!
