Zechariah is 5 years old today. We are so excited to celebrate his birth and his life because he is here because God gave us a miracle. Zak was born with aortic stenosis and almost didn’t make it when he was 36 hours old. By the time he was one he had been through as much medical treatment as some people in there 70’s. We love our big guy and we thank God everyday for our praying friends and family that have surrounded us and held us up in some of the most difficult times we have faced in our lives. This is just a reminder of God’s amazing healing power.
So Zak has a few favorite things in life. He absolutely loves bacon, trains and adventures. So we are helping him to have a day filled with his favorite things. We are having bacon cheeseburgers for lunch before we go on the light rail train to the Mall of America to go on rides.
Please join our family today as we praise God for the miracle that He gave us on 11-09-05 and pray for continued healing and wholeness for Zechariah’s heart as we continue on the journey with the pediatric cardiologists to watch him as he grows to figure out what is next for him.
Three cheers for Zak our miracle. We named Zechariah because of what his name means (God Remembered). I look at him everyday with the understanding that when God created Zak He knew what He was doing before the beginning of time. God has great plans for Zak to give him a hope and a future.
Please take a moment and pray today for our precious son and give thanks to God for where He has brought us and also pray that God will continue to heal his heart so that one day it will be completely whole.
