A miscarriage

How do you break it in a blog that you are having a miscarriage? I suppose you could be clever, but I'm choosing blunt. How do you approach this kind of situation? To be sure, we are sad. But we "do not grieve as the pagans do." We hang our hope on Christ and His perfect work. We trust the scriptures when they tell us that all things work out for His glory and our good. We cling to the promises for covenant children like David did when he said, "he will not come to me, but I will go to him." I have some pain and discomfort yet to come, but my peace is in Christ. What a blessing that He foreordained to give me my children and the desire to name them as we have. Kessedi Christi (my steadfast love in is Christ), Emmet Elijah (my God Yahweh is faithful), and Karissa Christi (grace is in Christ.)
