I'm amazed at how my Savior can take any and every circumstance around me to show me more about him. My prayer has always been that this journey of life I'm on would continually bring honor and glory to him, so by using every opportunity; my mistakes, my successes, and my day-to-day adventures, he teaches me how to use it for his glory. This life he blessed me with is ALL about him! So, these are my thoughts, my heart cries, and my lessons from his glorious Word. These are the teachable moments from my Savior!

Psalm 25:4-5 "Show me your ways, LORD, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long."

~ Jehovah-Rapha ~


Today was an incredible day at Caleb’s doctor appointment! We have been so blessed to have wonderful doctors taking care of our precious boy at UNC Children’s Hospital. Today was a big appointment as both his specialists joined us together.  They coordinated their schedules so they could meet with us together and they were in awe of where he is today compared to his test results just 2 years ago. Caleb has battled a medical issue since birth and we have seen our Great Physician do such a healing work in his little body. We have seen one doctor since Caleb came home from China and the other specialist joined the “party” last year because Caleb’s case was so unusual. They wanted to put two heads together and they have done an awesome job. They have put lots of teamwork into this and have been a huge blessing to our family.

As we sat there cramped in this tiny exam room, I listened to the doctors explain all the technical terms and how unlikely this was and I just smiled. When they finished, I shared with them that this is the result of lots of prayer. What an amazing God we serve! I shared again how we have prayed since day 1 that God would provide healing in Caleb and guide us through the treatment options even when they, the doctors, seemed skeptical and unsure of the correct route.  One of his doctors began tearing up! He has walked this battle with us for 6 years and to see these results got us all emotional. That’s right! Our Great Physician receives ALL the glory for this!

We praise God for His guiding hand, His healing touch, and His amazing love! Caleb is such a special boy and his sweet smile touches every life he encounters. He is our little miracle and we praise God for him!
