Pray for our son!

Hello all! I am writing this post to request the prayers of God's people all over the world. Our son, Isaiah, born on July 31st, has a serious health condition called "Metopic Synostosis." If you have never heard of that, it is ok. Jill and I were unfamiliar with the term as well.

Metopic synostosis is the premature fusing of the metopic suture, which is in the forehead. This results in a pointed forehead. You can read a very good article about it by viewing the Mayoclinic.com Health Library.

We saw a specialist about it on 9/3/2008. The doctor is going to order a CT-Scan and then schedule surgery. The dates are not set in stone yet, but the doctor Isaiah has is a very good physician at Children's Hospital in Columbus. I'll try to update more as time goes on.

This is quite an ordeal for a little guy like Isaiah, but we serve a very big God! We do appreicate your prayers on his behalf (and on the behalf of my wife and I). Romans 8:28 stands true whether we are on the mountain or in the valley.

"Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's." (Psalm 103:1-5)

In Christ,

David Green
