Parts of Her Story: "She Prayed"

6/9/2022

Laurie has been a really beautiful part of a year that our family experienced the highest of highs and lowest of lows. Laurie messaged me out of the blue this time last year as my husband and I were trying to adopt a baby. She explained that God woke her up in the middle of night and wouldn’t let her go back to sleep until she prayed for my baby. And God was apparently telling her cryptic messages about the circumstances of the baby we were to adopt - so she reached out to me needing to know more about what was happening in our lives at that point. Laurie had this uncanny way of just knowing things and had a direct line to the Lord. The situation we were in was complicated, but Laurie was steadfast in her support, love and prayers and even rallied 6 others to pray for us alongside her - she challenged me to have a real conversation with God and to listen closely for his guidance. She said “Sometimes the Spirit intercedes and sends a friend. I am humbled and blessed to be a prayer partner for you.” In the end, that situation did not lead us to our baby, but we could feel Laurie’s prayers holding us up every step of the way. She was a beautiful woman who felt called to bring us all closer to the Lord and she did it with grace, faith, and love. I only wish she could have met the baby that did end up being our child.
