I just wanted to say thanks Jerry, not just for your prayers, but for having this site where so many people have come together and prayed for me and my little girl. I gave birth to Hailey Madison on 5-20. If you remember, my husband had left me, and I had requested prayer for him many many times. He had been told he could never father a child, but I believed that one day, if it was meant to be,that the Lord would bless me with a child. Hailey had a large birth defect when she was born, where her liver, stomach, and intestines were outside of her body. A major deal, the docs said, where through gradual reduction over a period of 2 weeks they would slowly push things in. Well, she was fully repaired in 2 days! HE touched the hands of her surgeons, and her belly was fixed beautifully. They even gave her a belly button. She was on a venilator because she had respiratory failure, and she came off of it fully a week ago. Her feet are clubbed, and they are going to put casts on her to repair that. Also, a week before she was born, an echocardiogram of her heart showed a large hole between the bottom 2 chambers of her heart. At birth, the hole was GONE! While she was in the womb, an amniotic band had attatched itself to her ankle. 98% of the time these bands amputate the limb they attatch to. The Lord said not Hailey!!! She is a living breathing testimony of HIS goodness and grace, and the fact that prayer IS heard, and that the Lord DOES heal. I am constantly amazed at how HE opened the Heavens for my little angel and poured out the miracles for her. I cannot wait to see what HE has in store for her life, if HE's already blessed her so. I pray she grows to do amazing things in the name of the Lord. Please pray that she will continue to be healed (she has a few other concerns yet) and that she will get to come home with me from the hospital soon. And that my incision from having her, which is open and quite a mess, will soon be healed. I plead the blood over Hailey and myself, and ask for complete restoration. As far as my marriage is concerned, i've filed for divorce, and on the 10th, it will be finished. I gave Jason to the Lord and am moving on with my life, wherever HE will lead me. I still miss him and love him, but I had to let go. The Lord will intervene if it's intended. I am now following HIM with all my heart and pray that I will raise Hailey as HE intends, and have totally given my life over.. I've been blessed abundantly since then, and continue to revel in HIS glory.. Thanks again for helping me grow in HIM. Your web site started me on the path, and I continue to walk it with help and guidance from many of the friends I've made on here. I've grown so much in HIM, and I thank you for starting my journey. May God continue to bless you and your ministry!!! You've truly touched my heart, and I'll never be the same. I'm a better, complete person now, and completely at peace. God Bless you and your family, and THANKS!!

Your sister in Christ,
