Summer and Rick had a baby boy last night. He took a few short breaths in his mommy's arms and then went to the arms of Jesus. I am amazed at how Summer was truly living in the Spirit when I saw her and met thier precious Michael last night. I have never felt such peace in the midst of such overwhelming pain. It's like the presence of Jesus was so tangible in that room I was sure I was going to see Him standing there among the visitors. God really laid this hymn so heavily on my heart in that hospital room:
When peace like a river, attendeth my way
When sorrow like seabillows roll:
Whatever my lot, Though has taught me to say
It is well, It is well with my soul.
And, Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,
the clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
the trump shall resound,
and the Lord shall descend, even so, it is well with my soul.
It is well with Michaels soul. And hasten the day, O Lord, when our faith shall be sight and we can see all those that we have lost in love to You.
Now the healing begins. Please pray for Summer, Rick, and Michaels' older siblings: Caden (6), Ellie (4), and Will (2).
