Canceled scope

Yesterday a friend called up and specifically told me to put my hand on Grant and declare him healed. He was asleep in his swing, so I got off the phone and went over and did that. When he woke up I got out a bottle, ready for a food fight like we've been having all week. But, for the first time in so long Grant took the bottle in my arms (he usually only lets us feed him in his crib), peacefully and happily. It was awesome. For his next 5 feeds Grant drank his bottle with relative ease.

So, early this morning I paged the GI doctor and told him what happened. He made the decision to cancel the scope. It was so exciting. Grant was doing great. Then, as the day progressed Grant started to refuse the bottle again and was eating less than half of what he did yesterday.

We are very confused by this and are not sure what God is up to. But, we feel peaceful that Grant did not have the scope today.

Discernment is tough some times. Claim the healing you had today! God is in control. We live in a fallen world and need to continuously go before Him. Keep faith. We continue to pray.
Blessings,
