We continue to stand with you in faith and hope for your sweet girl, your warrior. That her body would be healed and whole. that it would be strong, that her blood vessels would be sustained and restored. that the doctors will have insight and revelation about how to treat her. We continue to speak life and wholeness and strength over her. And you, sweet amazing Amy... you warrior of a mama. I can only imagine how difficult it is to be there without Shawn, and to go through the daily trials without him to lean on in and confer with, to spell each other off and give each other hugs. I am praying that Jesus would draw even nearer to you in every way. that you would experience his nearness in a way you haven't before, and sense his leading and counsel every moment you need it. Praying for some good news. holding you up, annie in torontoannie_bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08999057775630201911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620800315071767228.post-28767207552303721902012-10-25T18:49:47.062-06:002012-10-25T18:49:47.062-06:00Thank you God for getting Amy and Hope through thi...Thank you God for getting Amy and Hope through this day. Help none of us to take our living each day for granted. Thank you Lord for giving Amy the strength she needed to fight for Hope today. Though it is impossible to know the purpose you have in bringing their family down this road of struggle and heartache, I pray that you will let them feel your arms around them as you carry them through this time. I pray that You will be glorified through this whole situation somehow. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620800315071767228.post-68505488151350283282012-10-25T14:00:40.092-06:002012-10-25T14:00:40.092-06:00Your friend Stephanie Wright is a gifted communica...Your friend Stephanie Wright is a gifted communicator and her words must really minister to your heart. <br />I ache for you as I read your words. <br />I too wonder at the experiences Hope is having to endure. But I do know that God put her for however long she walks this road with the absolute "right" parents. Although we don't know what happens with our sweet childrens' souls before they come to live with us, we do know that they are with God. And I can almost picture Hope pointing at you and Shawn and saying to Jesus "Please Abba Father, give me to that Mommy and Daddy!"<br /><br />God, infuse the Koslowskis with Your wisdom in this walk, your strength in the struggle, your peace in the storm. And like someone else has said, Give them nurturing times with this child they love, give them a sense that Hope feels their love and care, and please God - go before them!

I know it was stormy, but I hope it was for me a learning. Blood on the road wasn't mine though -- Someone that I know has walked here before. So here by the water, I'll build an altar to praise Him, out of the stones that I've found here. I'll set them down here, rough as they are, knowing You can make them holy."<br /><br />I pray for a great grace to be poured out on you today.<br /><br />Karen RichardsonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620800315071767228.post-43597678402324541012012-10-25T12:48:21.332-06:002012-10-25T12:48:21.332-06:00I keep picturing her sweet little face...

My daughter was in the NICU for heart issues for only 7 days, and never even came close to having to go down the roads your family has had to endure; all in just 6 months. God, I pray right now for your Spirit to pour an abundance of HOPE and love over Shawn & Amy. Lord, please send some type of encouragement their way; soon! Lift them up, speaks words of comfort and of wisdom in how to continue to walk this path with you. God, intervene today on Hope's behalf. I pray against any complications that would hinder the doctor's ability to continue to move forward with her surgery next month. Lord, thank you for entrusting Hope to Shawn & Amy, and for them being such a beautiful example of faith and following you. I know this is not the testimony that either of them could have ever wanted, but thank you for continuing to see them through this. God, she needs a miracle. In Jesus' name, I pray that is healing, and soon!Stephanie Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04389074046466973264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620800315071767228.post-7893444519982702142012-10-25T11:16:17.608-06:002012-10-25T11:16:17.608-06:00So sorry Amy.
