seriously...how can you NOT believe?!

Here's another letter we received last night regarding sweet Miles. Praise God! I know not everyone's "situation" turns out like this and I know if things had gone differently for the Flinn's He still would have used this for His glory.....but seriously...how after the last few weeks, how can you NOT believe?!

You are participating in a miracle, FFC'ers!!!
Doctors and nurses have said that Miles was one of the sickest babies they have ever seen. And NOW they are saying that he is the fastest healing baby they have ever seen!!! Go God! Miles has had a wonderful few days. He is transitioning well to breastmilk. The plan is to transition him to a C-PAP machine, which is the last step before him breathing all on his own! He is initiating many breaths on his own and his oxygen levels are all near normal.
Hopefully Tommy and Amber will be able to hold him within the next few days. The tests have shown that his lungs are either normal or very minimally sick, which is a miraculous improvement. They are bringing him off of many meds, and Tommy and Amber have been able to watch him move, open his eyes, change his diaper and he grips their finger now, too.
The primary issue of prayer right now is any long term damage he may have incurred from this past week; particularly from the ambulance ride, where he had to be resuscitated twice.
Please pray for no damage to his brain, for a long life for this little one. Pray that he will continue to heal and baffle the doctors with his recovery, giving God ALL THE GLORY!
Miles' name means "merciful" and "soldier". How appropriate!

ps...we are getting a scrapbook together today for Tommy and Amber, if you want to send them a note of prayer/encouragement--even if you don't know them--to add to it, you can email me at nickandabby@gmail.com

Abby, this post embodies the command of Jesus to enter the kingdom of heaven like a little child...sometimes, as adults we want to reason everything away and I love your viewpoint on this whole situation. It's an encouragement to me.
