Rejoice with me
 
Today our grandson Gabriel turned 8 years old...He is our miracle...many of you know he was born with a part of his heart missing and has had 2 serious operations...
Doctors said he would not live to be even 6 months old...today he turned 8! Just typing these few words tears are streaming down my checks...I have so much to praise the Lord for today...

sis that is a great miracle, they told me our nephew would not live long he has spinabifida, he still is alive and he is 11 years old, he actually has a identical twin brother, the sad thing is they do not go to church at all and have not thru this whole time,pray for them, they need God, but so glad to see that God is still in the miracle working business,

Oh that is a great fabulous idea!

What an amazing group, and that young man is so brave! He is also anointed no doubt!

I rejoice with you!

It was such a blessing to me to hear you tell his story--and to hear him sing when you came to Bro Street's church in Ripley and we were able to be in service with you.

Happy Birthday to Gabriel!

Sis A that is a wonderful testimony. God obviously has more for him to do. I went to school with a girl that was born with a heart problem and was not supposed to live. She made it past 24 hours and they gave her days, then months, then she would not live to be 2 and then 5 and then 10 and then 18. Then she would never have children. She is now in hr mid thirties, the mother of a beautiful daughter and filled with the Holy Ghost.
God knows what he is doing.

Happy birthday to your grandson and many blessings to you and your family.
