A sweet little miracle was born just a couple of weeks ago. Her name is Sophia Grace. Sophia has Edwards Syndrome. It is a disorder of the chromosomes where she was born with only 18. Downs Syndrome babies are born with 21. Sophia's parents knew about this condition prior to her birth. Most children with this disorder do not even make it through birth. This precious little girl has made it for the past 26 days! No small task for such a small bundle.
Since my friend Bob told me about his daughters prognosis we have been on our knees in prayer. We are not shy, we have been asking for a miracle. We truly prayed for her to be born healthy and we knew God could come through for us. God's plans are sometimes very different from ours. Despite what we think would be best, God knows better. We have not stopped praying or believing that he can perform a miracle by curing her or taking away her afflictions. The mere fact that she has come so far and is doing well is a miracle.
My brethren count it all Joy when you fall into various trials;
knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.
James 1:2-3 KJV
We are counting it all as Joy. We do not know what plans God has for Sophia Grace and her family but we ask that you pray with us. Please watch the video attached entitled 99 Balloons. It is the story of a little boy named Elliot with the same Syndrome that Sophia Grace has. What a great testimony of a family's love for their child and their faith and total trust in our Lord.
