Lemonade Redemption

OK Something very sweet happened last night as I lay in bed last night.
A lot of things have been bothering me lately and I am trying to deal with those things as best I can.
I was praying about that and this is what he brought back to my mind. It truly blessed me and tears were shed.
He took me back to the whole NICU experience. We were deathly afraid that Jonathan was not going to live. We had everyone from around the world praying. All we could do was watch and wait in the expectation of miracles.

Then he wanted to prove to me the He is continually redeeming us and our lives.
He then reminded me of when we returned to the NICU as a testimony of God's abundant grace. We were there in victory.Jonathan's story and our family's picture were chosen as a part of a 22 family project called Wall of Hope. To give hope to families there fighting with their kids.

He then reminded me that was on the same day we got a first glimpse of Daniel at 6 weeks.
At that point in time we were still in our early phases of our grief from losing Hannah to a miscarriage.
This was a beautiful day and it brought tears to me eyes then and it still does.
It was really strange to be in a room full of families that were once in the nicu donning yellow gowns fighting with their babies as they fought for their lives.
You should have seen how many of the parents were shedding tears as we were too as everyone told their stories.
Many of the doctors that helped him fight were there and they were all crying too.

Just remembering that took everything into a different view as if He was saying to me ;If I can redeem that hopeless situation, Just think about what I am going to do with that.
Just wanted to share that
Be blessed
