Reasons

Altotonga, Mexico -- Happy Thanksgiving! Today I have reason to give thanks-- and I would like to share that with you.

My Mexican sister-- Carmen-- was pregnant with twin girls. She has a daughter who just turned one a couple of weeks ago, and she has been waiting for the arrival of these new babies. After not going to the doctor for some time, she went on Monday and the doctor told her that it was a grave situation and that it would be between her life or the babies lives. You can imagine how she must have felt.

I went over that evening to visit with her and the family. We laid hands on her and prayed, trusting God that He had put these two lives in her and He was going to take care of them all.After a very long series of crazy events on Tuesday-- she was finally admitted into the hospital here in Altotonga. The doctors ran a few tests to see what her hemoglobin levels were-- and she had gone up 3 points-- which was good! That night, she gave normal birth to two healthy girls at 11:10 amd 11:30pm. All are in good health. The girls are skinny little things-- but very precious. And Carmen and the girls are now at home.

God did a miracle in her. What was one day a situation so grave and to the next night-- giving normal birth. We give the glory to God for what He did. Thank you to all of you who were praying. On another note, I am thankful for you-- who take the time to read and pray and who support me in those ways-- as well as financially. I am thankful to God for your lives and the lives of your families and pray His many abundant blessings over you.Well, my friends, I need to get. It's been a long day and there is still more to do. Will write soon!
