I've been doing some more praying in color today. My friend, Amanda W., after having a traumatic birthing experience to begin with, was rushed to emergency surgery when the blood vessel supplying the uterus burst. She actually lost all of her blood over the next hour or so, and is currently still in the hospital awaiting the next white blood cell count.
One of the things that amazes me about the body of Christ is that we can pray in a real way for people that we don't even know. Amanda is a believer, and the same Spirit that resides in you also lives in her! So even if you have never met her, you are spiritually connected within the Body. I love that! I am praying for many aspects of Amanda's life, but her biggest concerns are nursing and sleep. I guess some things about motherhood are always the same, ICU or home birth! Thanks so much for remembering her in your own prayers.
