Thank you God for miracles!

Some of you may remember me sharing at the beginning of the year about my friend Katye. Katye and her husband, Rusty, lost a baby last year the day after Christmas. Two days before their due date, they went in for a routine appointment only to discover their little boy Scout had died. Katye carried Scout for 9 months and never got to bring him home. I've been amazed this year at Katye and Rusty's ability to mourn deeply for Scout with the faith in God that there were still good things to come for them. Yesterday evening, Katye gave birth to a little boy, Deacon. Deacon is a perfect beautiful baby boy. As I looked at the pictures of them last night smiling and holding their baby boy, I was reminded that only God has the power to turn our mourning into laughter. Be encouraged that even in the very darkest times of life, God has not forgotten us nor will he ever forsake us.

  1. I was just like little Deacon. You are so right, God has not forgotten us... I remember this all of the time when some days aren't the greatest.. God has a reason for me to be here! :)

  2. And I can't imagine this world without you, although I would never wish for your mom to have to go through what she did. I am so thankful she had you :)
