What God Has Done For Me.

I love God. He has done so many things for me. I decided to share a couple of things, I hope you enjoy!

 When I was born, I was deaf, no accident caused me to become deaf, I just was. The doctors found out that I was deaf when I was 11 months old. The doctors said I would never speak. I had my surgery when I was 18 months (To put a "magnet" into my head, that way the cochlear implant would work.), after my surgery I got the cochlear implants. I began to speak, then the doctors said I would never be able to go past a 1rst grade reading level, but I went beyond that. In third grade I was reading 6th grade books.

 When I was nine I prayed that my mom would become pregnant. My mom told me that she was satisfied with the children she had, so instead I started to pray that we could foster orphan children. My parents weren't up for fostering, but sure enough a year later they decided to start take foster parenting classes. It took about three months for that to end, then we officially were a foster family. We fostered five children in three years. We loved them all, but the one that was the hardest to lose was Elle. She was our only girl foster child. We had her since new born to eight months old. When we lost her I never thought I was going to be happy again. I prayed that God would show me a reason she left. Well, three months after we lost Elle, my mom found out she was pregnant. I praised God for the answered prayer. I asked Him to show me why we lost Elle, he did, we had a baby we'd never lose. Those three years of fostering we preparing us for the permanent child. Not only was it preparation, it was three years of growing in faith. I'm a much stronger Christian than I was before fostering.

 Well, there you go! Hope you liked!
