I sure hope...

...you have checked out MckMama's blog for yourself by now. I hope you've been following her all along because if you haven't, you've certainly missed out on a tremendous blessing. Her story reads like a really interesting, well-written Christian made-for-TV movie... you know, the kind with lots of trial and tribulation but all along you know in your heart of hearts how the story is going to turn out (think Hallmark Channel!) Except, MckMama is, well, real. She's a real human being who was pregnant with a real human son (see post below if you need clarification on that statement!) so it's not like any of us were guaranteed that happy ending. Sometimes it was hard to read because the pain of uncertainty was tangible, palpable. And if you've been a Christian long enough then you have learned that God's ways are most certainly not our ways no matter how much we beg! (Ever wonder who came up with "because I said so..."? I believe with all my heart that notion comes directly from God on His throne!) Anyway, He never ever fails... He cannot! Still, it only takes a quick trip to the local hospital or county morgue to see that we don't always get our happy endings on this side of eternity. Nonetheless, there are still times to this very day when God performs miracles that are so outlandish, so extraordinary that they cannot be attributed to anything other than, well, miracles. And now I rejoice with MckMama and her family as they celebrate a time such as this with the healthy, miraculous birth of their son Stellan yesterday.

May God continue to bless and use Stellan and his entire family for the furthering of

His Kingdom!
