A boy named Living.

Living

This boy is named Living. He is about 8 or 9. He is the adopted son of a Cambodia Pastor named Malay. He has a remarkable story. His birth mother decided to have a late term abortion. Fortunately, the doctor botched the procedure and he was born live. He only weighted about a kilogram at birth. One of the members of the church was visiting at the hospital. A hospital worker asked her if she would take care of him and she took him to Pastor Malay's church. It seem impossible that this injured premature baby could survive. There were no incubators or modern medical equipment. The members of the church put him in the sunshine to keep him warm and fed him baby formula. And prayed. God answered their prayers. He is called Living because God gave him the gift of life. Today he is an active, healthy growing boy. He is learning English. He loves his earthly father who adopted him and his Heavenly Father who adopted him as well. As believers we know that each life is precious gift from the Creator and is a blessing and treasure from him.
