Comments on our life, mostly our daughter.

An incredible faith

Filed under: Uncategorized — Christy at 3:07 pm on Monday, October 1, 2007

As I was surfing blogs last night I ran across one from a family who recenly lost their 8 day old daughter to a disease called trisomy-18. I got hooked and read their entire blog. They found out about this disease 3 months ago and knew that the baby would possibly not make it to term and if she did, she would not live long. They have posted a video on you tube that includes a song written by a friend of theirs. It is amazing, you need to watch it. I cried.

This couple has an amazingly strong faith in God. I praise Him that I have a healthy toddler and pray that if such a tragedy were to come to our family I would trust God so completely.

That is so weird - I spent Sunday afternoon reading that same entire blog! It is seriously an amazing testimony of God’s love and their faith.

I’m crying and wondering how on earth that family remained so strong. Beautiful example that God only gives you what you can handle. What a testament.
