A Miracle

Rate this Entry
I have always known that God had us in His hands, this whole situation and whatever we were going through that He was guiding us and directing our every path. I could see it in the slight things he
was orchestrating, from getting us the best care,
and the best doctors to just putting the right
person at the right time to speak encouragement
to us, but after yesterday's appointment I have no doubt in my mind that He works through the littlest of things, and He can be in the midst of the storm making peace.
Yesterday I had another doctor's appointment. It was just a regular check up and seeing my
regular OBGYN. They wanted to rotate me
through different doctors but I wanted to see
this one again because my husband and I really
liked him. I didn't know what it was about him
but now I do.
I had to go by myself and drive almost an hour
to the appt. because my husband couldn't go
with me and family and all is out of town.
I was perfectly ok with that because I wasn't
having an ultrasound even so it was going to be quick. I had to wait an hour after my appt. but I was fine. I started getting perturbed a little
but I really liked this doctor so I thought the
wait is well worth it.
To make the long story short the doctor was
talking to me about the newly diagnosed CDH
and talking to me about how we were doing
and all, and wanted to know how we were
holding up and then he asked out of the clear
blue what my faith was. I told him that we were Christian/Protestant, and that my dad is in the ministry etc. He then said that
he was going to be praying for us and our baby in his own personal time. And then asked if it
would be ok if he prayed for me now. He laid
his hand on my stomach and prayed a prayer
that brought tears to my eyes. Never in my life have I ever had a doctor pray with me in the
exam room. He said he doesn't normally do that but he felt led to, and knew there was
something different about my husband and I. I walked out of there encouraged that I believe
was only something God could have done at
that time. I know without a doubt that God has me, my husband, our son, and my unborn baby Bryson in His hands. I am looking ahead and
whatever might be thrown our way, our faith
will not falter. We will continue to believe and
take one day at a time.

    Wow. This is such an encouraging, inspirational story. Before our son was born, a lot of faithful people told us we would be rewarded for our faith. We were. Praying for you and your family and little Bryson. God is holding him in the palm of His hand and surrounding him with His angels.

    Julie,

    You must always believe. There are many days that our faith falters because of our great loss in Liam's passing. We know that God hand picks his Angels, and that Liam was hand-picked because God needed a strong Angel to hold onto the children struggling with CDH. Our son is an inspiration and watches over us and holds us in his arms. I feel his little arms around me and his little hands in mine! I struggle to hold tight to my faith, but I know that it's there and I know I will find it again.

    Take care! Many thoughts and prayers being sent your way!
