They say that God never gives us more than we can handle...At times I am almost afraid of being a strong person, because I wonder how much more I will get dumped in my lap. Last week my daughter in law was admitted to the hospital and told that she had pre eclampsia. Her blood pressure was sky high and she still had 5-6 weeks til her due date. After 4 days in the hospital and her condition worsening, the doctors decided to deliver the baby. My first grandson was born on February 12th. This beautiful baby, so tiny and frail, captured my heart in one single glimpse. I am in love.
The arrival of my grandson has led me to feelings that I never really knew existed. The fact that the doctors said there might be some "issues" with him, make me love him even more. The emotional roller coaster that I am on would probably tear me down if I did not have FAITH in God. Let's not forget that my own baby boy is only 7 months old. So emotionally, I am at my witts end!
I pray in the morning, in the evening, and all throughout the day. I trust that God is doing all of this for a reason. We may not understand it, but it is all part of His plan. As scary as it was to hear the doctor explain her "findings" wrong with the baby, we have been blessed to get good news about my grandson on a daily basis. Each night I go to bed in peace, knowing that God can do anything! He will heal the sick, He is always by our side, and He does everything for a reason.
I don't know why we have to tread thru heavy mud. But I do know that God is with us every step of the way. I guess we can only overcome the thing that is bothering us the most, if we face it head on and give Glory to God for all that he does.
My grandbaby is no longer on a feeding tube. He can drink from a bottle! His test results keep coming back normal. He just might be able to go home in a few days!
God is AWESOME!
