Here is an update from Jeff:
Thanks so much for your kind encouragements and gifts. We have received more than usual lately and are thinking about a vehicle purchase. The rushing over to the orphanage in GZ prov. and emergency runs to the hospital as well as times to just go to a park with a bunch of children may justify the purchase. It also looks like I may need to travel to other places where orphans or children with needs are being cared for or need care. We are very thankful for this opportunity.
At the beginning of January little Malachi passed away. We had taken him to the children’s hospital. The leader of the heart specialists, Dr. W, has volunteered to help out when he can. He took us to get an ultrasound.
Malachi’s heart was very congenitally deformed with one value shut. The blood was going in the wrong directions. So the doctor said nothing could be done and Malachi would need to be loved till he passed away. We took it before God and asked for his hand to be on Malachi. We set up a side room with a soft chair, Malachi’s crib, oxygen and times of cuddling and songs.
As Malachi breathing became more labored I hopped in a taxi and took him to the ER. The nurses put us in a quiet room. Only one other baby was there, a newborn of a Miao couple from Kaili.
By God’s divine appointment I got to have a meaningful chat with this family. They got a copy of Father’s book.
And a bit later Malachi passed into Father’s arms.
We are learning a lot about God’s presence in our lives….especially in suffering. His grace is abundant!
Victorious because of Jesus great suffering for us.
In Him,
Jeff for all
