Please Pray for Abby

I have been following little Abby and her family for many months now. She has been in my thoughts & prayers every day since I was first 'introduced' to her. Please take some time to read below (copied from their blog), watch the video and most importantly PRAY for this little angel!

The Valley Begins Wednesday... Would You Pray For Abby and Let Others Know About Her?

Tomorrow, Abby starts a phase of her treatment where she is least likely to survive.

For the past few days, we have been asking everyone to ask everyone they know to join us in praying for Abby, and for God to be glorified through this troublesome journey. We aren't trying to focus on death, or the negative aspects because we feel hopeless... we just wanted to use the four days leading up to this next phase to communicate how serious this time is, and bring people into the prayer group with us.

Are you a new visitor? Here is a video I did last night to quickly let you know who Abby is, and where her journey has taken her:

* Here is a link that will open up a pre-written, preformatted email asking folks to pray for Abby

As we begin this new phase, we want to emphasize that we TRUST GOD and His will. We would be sad if Abby goes to heaven, but know that she will be in a far better place. That's not just poetic rhetoric or a feel-good cliche... we BELIEVE it as sure as we believe anything.

We are not asking people to pray to coerce God, but rather to knit together a community with a common point of unity. Imagine the joy of a Father when His children petition Him on behalf of those He considers the MODEL of who will enter the Kingdom: little children.

We are overwhelmed, humbled and undeserving of the love, prayers and encouragement we have received... on behalf of Abby, our family is forever grateful and deeply moved by the demonstration of love from people all over our nation, and the world.

Please continue to let other people know, share our blog with them, put us on prayer lists, and let us know how we can pray for you. Again:

We have hope and true joy as we move into the "valley of the shadow" because our hope in is God, and His only Son.

How can we be a blessing to you today? Leave us a comment and let us know...
