Prayer for an AWAA Family

There are heavy hearts in the Reed family over these past few weeks. They received their referral from America World for a 3 month old girl. They were waiting for their court date in July, and then after passing they were preparing to travel to pick her up in Ethiopia. They were called 4 days after passing court and told that their daughter had passed away. I can't imagine the heartbreak of losing a child. It's amazing to me how much you can love someone when you've never even met them. I know that they saw her as their daughter. I know that they were her parents in their hearts. I know that they were devastated that they'll never get to meet her this side of heaven. Because that's how I would feel if it were Levi...

So, please pray for the Reed family as they grieve their daughter, and move ahead with another adoption. If you want to follow their journey you can click here: http://www.reedadoption.blogspot.com/

It hits home when something like this happens, and so I'm asking that you lift their family up to the Lord of Lords who is in control of everything. Thank you for your prayers for the Reed's.
