This precious family, The Atchisons, lost their four-year-old baby girl last night when she passed completely unexpectedly in her sleep. I cannot imagine what they are going through. Billy, the dad, was on staff with Campus Outreach when I was in college and Hope was a friend. Sweet Alaiana has gone to be with He who made her, loves her, and keeps her.
I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills: from whence cometh my help. My help
cometh even from the Lord: who hath made heaven and earth. He will not suffer
thy foot to be moved: and he that keepeth thee will not sleep. Behold, he that
keepeth Israel: shall neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord himself is thy keeper:
the Lord is thy defence upon thy right hand; So that the sun shall not burn thee
by day: neither the moon by night. The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil:
yea, it is even he that shall keep thy soul. The Lord shall preserve thy going
out, and thy coming in: from this time forth, for evermore. Glory be to the
Father, and to the Son: and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is
now, and ever shall be: world without end. Amen Psalm 121

Donna,
Thanks for posting about this. I was gonna do it on our blog. I am physically sick over it. I too cannot even come close to fathoming what they are going through. We will be praying along with you guys as the Lord guides them through this tragedy and suffering.
I am so sad, I have no words. We are praying tons for them and I have been thinking of them all day!
Thanks Donna. I too have been thinking about and praying for them.
I will be praying for them. I cannot even begin to imagine their grief.
Thanks for sharing this, Donna.
Oh, that is absolutely heartbreaking. Thanks, donna, for sharing...we will definitely be lifting up this family. I cannot even begin to imagine this kind of pain and sorrow.
