Twin girls, Brielle and Kyrie, were born 12 weeks ahead of their due date. Needing intensive care, they were placed in separate incubators. Kyrie began to gain weight. Her weight eventually stabilized. But Brielle, only 2 pounds at birth, had trouble breathing, heart problems and other complications. She was not expected to live.

Their nurse did everything she could to help Brielle thrive, but nothing she did helped. After having done all she could, their nurse went against hospital policy and placed both babies in the same incubator. She left the twin girls to sleep and when she returned, she found a sight she could not believe. She called all the nurses and doctors and the picture above is what they saw. Read the rest of this entry »

Childlike trust in God takes God at His Word regardless of all reasoning’s, trusting that His word is absolute truth. Likewise, our own children come into the world completely trusting our words as parents. I admit that I’m a practical joker…sometimes to a fault.
