Responses to our Appeal for Prayer Support

for

Kirsten, Scott & Janelle Snarey

On February 3, 2006

 

 

Click Here for Announcement of Austin’s birth!

 

 

At 10:17 AM, the original Prayer Request was:

 

Dear Praying Friends,

 

    Our third daughter & husband, Kirsten & Scott Snarey, are requesting prayer regarding their soon to be born son.

 

    Kirsten 'n Scott have Janelle (8 years old a week ago today) and having lost children in the 1st trimester both before and after Janelle, were delightfully surprised to experience Kirsten keeping this child beyond the 1st, and on through now, when the child is technically due on February 6.

 

    However, today, she called Jan and told her that the doctor has checked this morning and the baby's heart rate is . . . slow.  She is to go back in this afternoon (Phoenix time) for a double check.  If the heart rate has remained constant the doctor wants to induce labor today.

 

    Please join them and us in praying for God's best for the baby, Kirsten and her family as well as the rest of us who have gleefully anticipated the arrival of this special little blessing (our 11th grandchild).

 

        Yours, In Christ,

 

                tim, for jan, too

            9.  10:41 AM - Hi Tim,

Its always great to hear from you, but this time I just had to write back.  While praying for that child I had the strangest feeling that he has already been dedicated to the Lord.  Like Samuel, he has been given to the Lord's work and service and will have a very special call.  I pray that we will all have the privilege of watching this child grow, and learn, and change the world before God jealously takes him home. 

Blessings to you and the family.  Grace and peace to you and yours.

Robert  - M. a classmate of Kirsten’s at Azusa Pacific University, and a dear attorney friend of ours who lived in our home in Marin while he was doing an externship for one of the California Supreme Court justices.

                I just now opened both messages.  My, oh my!  What drama unfolds before our eyes.  The grace and mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ are the priceless treasures mined within the inner courts of our relationship with Him.  His goodness is the standard by which good is defined. (Matt 19:17) 

                I cannot help but imagine that this child has a special anointing for His purpose.  May this grace and mercy remain upon this soul now and always for His Kingdom's sake.
