Makenzie

The babe arrived two weeks ago, after only 30
weeks in the oven. She is now 32 weeks old,
weighing in at just over 3 pounds. This bundle
is bringing delight to parents and staff alike.
Mackenzie is not passive toward life. She is
constantly in motion when awake, wanting to
see what is going on. That is why it was such a
surprise this past weekend when her gut passed
blood and then stopped working. The diagnoses
put forth all sounded bad.

What did the church do? What the church always
does. She prayed. Nothing was ever confirmed
but yesterday she was put back on milk. The
Xrays look good... Mackenzie so alive!

Life is more powerful than death even when
death comes.

Jesus said to Martha four days after the death
of Lazarus: "I am the resurrection and the 
life; he who believes in Me shall live even if 
he dies, and everyone who lives and believes 
in Me shall never die. 
Do you believe this?" (John 11:25,26)

Reader, do YOU believe this? Our God is a
God of life! Eternal Life.
