Believe God

I was staring at my 25 week old son today and was thankful to God that he is healthy and developmentally intact. I feel so blessed to have this child in my life and I am honored that God would trust me to raise him. Months before, the doctors were suggesting that we terminate the pregnancy because they found issues with his brain. My husband and I stood on our faith in Jesus Christ, that He would heal our baby and he would go on to have a healthy life that would bring Him glory. After much prayer of many around the nation and the world, our baby got a clean bill of health. He was born at 38 weeks gestation at a whopping 8lbs and 14 oz.

I say all of this to say, never doubt God and teach your children to do the same at a young age. There is nothing too hard for him. And while there is definitely a need for doctors, I know who the Great Physician is. The doctors may give us results that we don't want to hear and we have to choose which report we are going to believe. I am telling you to believe the report of the Lord and do not waiver in your faith. Naturally, the enemy will bring unbelief and we have to cast down those thoughts and imaginations and replace them with the Word of God. When our children see how we respond to our afflictions, trials, and tribulations, it will encourage them in their walk and it will duplicate in their lives and their children's lives.
