God's Choice

They said he would never make it. They said no one would question our decision as the pregnancy was earlier than 24 weeks. They said if he did live, he would be severely handicapped.

Each day they filed into our small hospital room with their forecast of doom. They told us to abort, that an abortion - termination - was the logical choice. They said it was our choice.

We told them No. We told them our son's destiny was God's Choice.

And God chose Jacob.
