Sometimes we forget how great our God is. Then suddenly He takes the most hopeless situation and does something so wonderful that we have to stand in awe of His great care.
Two years ago today, a little baby boy was born… eleven weeks early. We were so afraid. A kind young pastor came and sat with us as we waited. Friends stopped by to show their care. Family brought food to the waiting room as the doctor performed emergency surgery. Loved ones called and offered help. I dropped my cell phone and watched it explode on the sidewalk just as I was trying to call my daddy. David and I held hands and tried to be strong for our daughter and son-in-law.
And everyone prayed.
Finally we got the news. Our daughter Amanda would be ok. Our tiny grandson was alive! They named him Able because,
“All glory to God, Who is able through His mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.” –Ephesians 3:20
Oh what a promise!
When a situation seems hopeless…
when we fear the worst…
and especially when we are completely out of options…
Our God is able!
Happy Birthday beloved Able! You are a constant reminder of God’s great care!
Precious! Thanks for this post, such a great reminder of His greatness.
