Modern day Miracles

We had the privilege of expierencing a miracle this past week. A couple from our fellowship had their first baby on the 31st of December, unfortunately he wasn't the healthy baby that they had hoped and prayed for. He was born 3 weeks too early and had something causing internal bleeding. The doctors couldn't figure out what it was, they did all their tests and couldn't find anything. He had to receive blood transfusions for a few days because of the bleeding. He was in intensive care from birth until they were sent home this week. He came near to death more than once during that time. It was a very intense, faith testing, time. We as a family and a church body have been praying since we found out about the situation. Praying for Gods healing and that we might see a miracle in that healing. We received an email from the dad yesterday saying that mom and baby were home, and that the doctors have no explanation for what it was. Praise God!
What a great God we serve! The dad wrote that up until now he was skeptical of miracles in modern times, but through this experience he has a deeper faith in Jesus Christ as our Redeemer, and the Lord and Creator of this world.
2 Timothy 2:13

jan is making me read EVERYONE's blogs now AND i am going to be in BIG trouble if i don't buy a digital camera like the one she got for Christmas and start my own blog so she can see pics of johnny all the time like all the other kids AND i bet she will start weekly exams soon to test my blog memory. that is amazing about the baby. God is sooooo good. It is so humbling to remember when I see a big miracle that He is doing one in me every day! I look forward to reading about more of His faithfulness on your blog, but although He is faithful in my life too, don't hold your breath for mine to be update anytime soon... sorry grandma jan... when is the next exam due?
