I am writing this letter with a heart of joy! This morning we took Lili to see the kidney specialist yet again, but this time it was for her very last check-up! It’s been a year since her kidney infection, and every month since we have visited the doctor, after painstakingly collecting a urine sample from a little girl still in diapers! For a year Lili was not supposed to go swimming, or to have a bath with her brother. Today she got the all clear! The doctor told me that her kidneys look absolutely normal, and that while kidney problems can recur, most often it will happen within the first year, so Lili will not likely have any further problems! What an awesome God we serve! Recently He challenged me with the thought that we so often steal His glory when He does something miraculous! It may be tempting to think that this is simply what happens to any little girl who has a kidney infection and receives good medical care. However, I have resolved not to give credit to anyone else for what He alone has done! And I am convinced that God Himself has healed our little Lili! He may have chosen to do it through the medical system, but that does not change the fact that only God Himself can truly heal us. And I for one want more than ever to give Him the glory!
