Isaac James Wood

Amy and Rob went into the hospital last night to start the induction process around 7:00pm. I received a text from her asking for prayers of overwhelming peace and comfort for both she and Rob, once they had begun the pitocin drip.

Isaac James Wood was born this morning at 7:05am, and the last word I had from Amy is that they were waiting to hold him and say their goodbyes. The gender was a surprise as they were waiting until delivery to find out if it was a boy or a girl.
Isaac, what a sweet name - meaning "Child of the Covenant" or "Child of the Promise"
Genesis 17:19 - And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear the a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: And I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.

I know that sweet baby Isaac is resting peacefully in the arms of his Savior, and I am rest assured that those same Savior's Arms that are holding Isaac, are with Amy and Rob holding and comforting them as well. I pray that the Lord will bless and comfort them both with His Holy Word, as only He can do, and may He remind us all of the blessed assurance of Heaven for all who believe in Jesus as their Lord and Savior.

"Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world." Matthew 25:34

Please pray for healing and peace for both Amy and Rob in the upcoming weeks.

Sweet baby Sarah did have her birthday party on Saturday. Rob's mom was so sweet to open her home to everyone for a cookout, cake and pool time! Sarah really seemed to like the pool except when her cousin Jack thought it was so fun to poor water right on top of her head! Not Cool-Jack....but some of the photos of her eating her birthday cake were the best...

On behalf of Amy and Rob, thank you again for all of your thoughts and prayers.
