“I am He, I am He who will sustain you.
I have made you and I will carry you;
I will sustain you and I will rescue you.” Isaiah 46:4b
The God who gives life to the dead and calls into being things that were not (Rom. 4:17) would be sustaining No. 5’s eternal soul even if He did not sustain his or her body…but God, who is rich in mercy, has blessed us with a healthy baby at 16 weeks.
And…it’s another BOY!
Praise God with us!!!!!!!
Yay!!!!

I’ve stewed over this for a few days, and I found an answer to the question I posed with your last post. Althought I thought “Hope” would be perfect if you were having a girl, you need a different name for a boy. Here’s a thought from some digging (no obligation, but you’re welcome to use it):
Von meaning and name origin
Von \von\ as a boy’s name is pronounced von. It is of Old Norse origin, and the meaning of Von is “hope”. Also a respelling of the Dutch-derived Van.
Von has 3 variant forms: Vondell, Vonn and Vontell.
Praise! Praise! Praise!!!!
I am so happy for you (said through tears)!!! I pray that all is well in all of your households (Dad’s surgery)!
Yay! ๐ That is fantastic news! Praying that Valor’s little brother continues to be healthy and strong until he’s ready to make his grand entrance… ๐
I don’t even know you, and I burst into tears when I saw this post! I’m so happy for you! God is good, gracious, and merciful. May this child be blessed with the blessing you are to others.
