A Precious Jewel

        Last evening, I had the opportunity to see pictures of our neighbor's 27-week old baby. I was amazed at how tiny she is. Born at 26 weeks, she weighed 1 pound and 6 ounces at birth. There was one picture that was really neat: Jewel* was holding her father' wedding ring. Her father told me he could pull the ring up her thigh. Then he went on to tell me about all the alarms that are hooked up to Jewel and all the care that the nurses put into her. They are doing all they can in human power to keep her alive, yet other people are killing babies around the same age. It is so sad that people are so brutal. God is the ultimate One keeping little Jewel alive, but we as human beings made in the image of God should do all we can to keep babies alive.
        Remember Jewel and ALL the jewels out there and please pray for an end to abortion in our country and the world.

*"Jewel" is not actually our neighbor's name, but I used it for privacy purposes and because of the fact that she IS a jewel.

                                                                        God bless!

    1. I know. The sad thing is that many young single mothers are lied to. We must pray for our country.
