Not Forgotten

You may recall that I wrote a post a few weeks back titled Broken. Remember how I was planning on taking the afternoon off and "celebrating" the 4th of July? Instead I went to meet this new little Peanut at the hospital. This little one who was abandoned that very morning. This sweetie was released from the hospital the other day and is now safe and sound and home with us. We couldn't be more thrilled to love him back to health.
Although yes, he is home with us, he is not "out of the woods." This little one is tiny, small, and weak. I've never seen such a small two-month old baby. Won't you continue to lift Peanut up? Pray that God would give him strength and that he would gain weight.

He was left, abandoned, but he was NOT forgotten. God Almighty holds this little treasure in His loving arms. He wept silent tears when this little boy was left, when for whatever the circumstances were, his birth family was unable to keep him. The God who made him, knows him, and loves him has not forgotten this precious child. He is made in the image of God. And God is going to turn this heartbreaking story into a story that shares His love, grace, and redemption.

"For You created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made."
Psalm 139:13-14
