God is so so good to me! The only friend I could ever truly count on! He has done so much for me in my 32 years on this earth, more than I could ever thank him or for... or even deserved.
I was sickly as a child. So many doctors.... so many diagnoses. Fastforward... I was told that I would be lucky to make it to 30. I was also informed that if I got pregnant, I would pass on during child birth.
I have two beautiful children and THANK GOD for them. I am also still alive and well. Ups and downs? Sure. But healthier than I was many years ago.
I have struggled, there's no denying that. But God never left me... I have left him a few times, but he stayed. I fail him daily, I come short of his mercy and love, but yet he still gives it to me.
When my son was born, he had to be lifeflighted to a children's hospital that was about 3 hours away from where I gave birth to him. His brain was swelling and he had stopped breathing. I had the perfect pregnancy. I didn't even have morning sickness.
The whole way to the hospital, I prayed. I kept asking God why he would give me a baby just to take him away from me.
After I got to the hospital, I went back to my son's room. It was heartbreaking. He had tubes and IVs everywhere. I sat by his little bed and rubbed his tiny arm until I dozed off around 2 that morning. I awoke to see a man sitting by my son's bed with the most peaceful look... I was startled, asking him if everything was okay.
The man smiled at me, introduced himself as Dr. Meadows and smiled the biggest smile. He told me, "Yes, he is going to be just fine. He will pull through this just fine."
A peace filled my whole body. My son turned 10 this July. Although the other doctors told me that he would be a vegetable, that one doctor told me otherwise.
I tried to find him while my son was in the hospital. I asked the nurses. They looked at me funny. Right then, that confirmed it.
A sisiter in Christ Jesus turned me onto a singer/song writer recently. If you get the chance you may like him to for listening Toby Mac! Look what the Lord has done!
That was a wonderful testimony Sarahirena of God's Goodness and Grace shown towards you and your little son. May that witness by the LORD at the hospital bed and His Presence in you and with you now be your daily experience, joy and peace. Psalm 145:18,19.

God is good all the time!
