Stellan's Home Run

Here in our household we've been sitting on the sidelines watching God at work in the life of a little boy named Stellan. You can read about him here.

Stellan was born with a heart problem called SVT. He lives in Minnesota, but last week he and his mother, known as MckMama, flew to Boston for a risky procedure at Boston Children's. The poor little tyke was in rough shape. Doctors were hopeful that they could help him, but felt they only had a 20% chance of successfully ridding his body of SVT without causing permanent heart damage.

MckMama requested prayers that God would give their little boy a "home run"... that he'd be in that 20% category.

People all around the world prayed.......

and waited.....

and hoped......

Stellan fought....

Doctors used "creative thinking" and God blessed Stellan with a home run!!!!!!!! Stellan is now back in Minnesota with his parents and three siblings. We're so happy for them!
Who knows why God chooses to heal some here on earth, and not others.... We're grateful that God decided to be merciful to Stellan's family and heal him now. God is good regardless.... but... wow... I know Stellan's parents must have yearned for many many more years here with Stellan, rather than a lifetime of waiting to meet him in Heaven. And... to have him here, with NO SVT... all the better!

Can you believe it? A 20% chance!

To Him who is able to do "infinitely more than we can ask or imagine" be all the glory!
