Going Home...

Erin touched base with me this morning with some EXCELLENT news! They have moved Harper Anne to a room on the floor with the hopes that they'll be able to come home in 2-3 days. Her echo showed that everything looked really good. Her oxygen levels did come down, so there won't be any need to readjust the pulmonary band. Our God is so good!!
On my way to Jackson yesterday, a song came on my iPod and it made me think of the past week with Harper Anne, Erin and Chad, our family and all of the struggles that came along with it. It was "Wonderful, Merciful Savior" by one of my favorite groups, Selah!
"Wonderful, Merciful Savior,
Precious Redeemer and Friend
Who would've thought that a lamb could,
Rescue the souls of man,
oh, you rescue the souls of man.
Counselor, Comforter, Keeper
Spirit we long to embrace
you offer hope when our hearts have,
hopelessly lost our way.
oh, we've hopelessly lost our way.
You are the one that we praise,
you are the one we adore,
you give the healing and grace,
our hearts always hunger for.
Almighty, infinite father,
faithfully loving your own.
Here in our weakness you find us,
Falling before your throne,
Oh, we're falling before your thone."
We pray daily that God will reveal Himself to us through the people and the situations in our lives. Harper's illness definitely brought people to their knees in prayer and God knew that we were hungry and wanted Harper to be healed. Our God is AMAZING and He is the reason that Harper is better today. He absolutely deserves all of the praise for what He has done.
We all know how hospitals are, so we're not sure when Harper will be discharged, exactly. However, we're optimistic that it will be soon!! Keep us in your prayers!!

What a blessing for Harper's Mommy and Daddy and for your family as well. Maddie Gray, Josh, and I have been in prayer for Baby Harper since you told us. We will continue to pray for her to gain strength and hopefully she will be home in her nursery so very soon.
