​​Praying for Infertility, Miscarriage, Neonatal Loss

​​It’s a frustrating and painful thing not to be able to conceive easily. It can be devastating to experience miscarriage or the loss of a newborn. People going through any of these are often confused, sad, and angry. They may wonder what is wrong with them and why God is letting this happen. It’s important in your response that you are sensitive without offer pat or cliché answers.

​​ 

​​Possible things to pray for:

​​ 

​​·      God’s comfort to cover their heart and spirit

​​·      Trust in His timing and guidance (specifically for those experiencing infertility)

​​·      Healing of their bodies, that God would allow everything to function properly

​​·      That God would bring people around them to support and care for them
