Some friends of ours have just been blessed with their first child, and they are having a hard time. The new mom, especially, is struggling with her fears about parenting, and with nursing in specific. They are also having a hard time getting sleep. They are both strong believers, but I am afraid they are having a hard time hearing the Lord right now. Please pray that they be filled with strength and peace from the Lord, that they find solutions to the nursing and sleep issues, that the baby's health issues (minor, but still of some concern) clear up, and -- most of all -- that they remember their Father and seek His voice during this trying time.

Thank you very much for praying. I think that is what they need more than anything right now.
