Rachel Amariah

One of the many gifts God has given is a friend I've never actually met, Kendra. Many of you have also followed her story linked from my blogroll. We shared a mutual friend in Cambodia and have walked the dark pathways together and have seen the Lord working out the same things in our lives. It's hard to explain the closeness that forms from walking through the same ways at the same time.

Today at 3:45 Kendra and Dave lost Rachel Amariah from this life. Could you pray for this dear family right now? Pray for comfort as they lay their little one in the grave. Isn't she beautiful?

She is beautiful Kara. Thanks for posting this. I also pray for you, as you process this. Praying that all continues to go well in your little family.

oh Kara. Thank-you! We have this same picture of her on our screensaver and I was so moved to see it on your blog too. And I feel the same way about you, dear friend. I feel honored to have journed this far with you.

She is beautiful! I've been following their blog for a few months now since you told me about sweet little Rachel Amariah and am hurting for their loss. We will be lifting up them up in prayer!

Kara, when I first gave you Kendra's blog address, part of me thought, "Two busy moms that have babies needing intensive care are never going to have the time to follow a stranger's blog." I'm so thankful I followed the Spirit rather than that seed of doubt. I often feel inadequate to share words with both you and Kendra, because I cannot really understand what you're going through. So I'm very thankful that you've been able relate in a deep way through your journeys. This blog post touched my heart and made me cry. Thanks for honoring Rachel... I've also never met her, but I know she has amazing godly parents.
