Pregnancy is an exciting time. But for expectant mom Alexandra "Aley" Meyer it was a time of intense worry. That is, until God used an ultrasound photo to send a powerful message of peace!
Aley suffers from Crohn's disease, and as a result, has to take a lot of medication. So, she's spent much of her pregnancy in a constant state of worry over what kind of an impact that will have on Easton, her unborn baby boy. That concern only intensified when she experienced some unexpected bleeding, which sent her to the doctor to make sure everything was ok.
Aley left the doctors office relieved to know that everything was just fine with her and her baby. She also left with some ultrasound photos in hand. But it wasn't until that weekend at her baby shower that she realized that God was using one of the photos to send her a very special message.
One of the guests pointed to the ultrasound photo, asking, "Do you see that?"

"No, over here to the right," the friend said. And that's when Aley finally saw it -- Jesus on the cross!
And once she saw it, Aley says she couldn't stop looking! She says she must have stared at the ultrasound photo for 30 minutes.

The happy Mom believes that God is the reason for her peace and she continues to find comfort in the ultrasound message."I definitely feel that it's a sign from God," she says. "I've been on so many medicines that are scary to be on while you're pregnant for my Crohn's disease, so I feel like this is just a sign that things are going to be completely OK with him, and it puts my mind at ease."
Our God works in mysterious ways, but those who trust in Him will always find comfort!
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7
