Baby Girl Holds On Just Long Enough for Brother and Mother to Live

In the midst of great loss, there are sometimes moments of hope that transform lives forever. A baby girl holds on long enough for her brother and mother to live. When Nash and Jayme Kuehl wanted to start a family, they had no idea of the heartache, challenges, and loss they would face. Jayme became pregnant with twins, but her pregnancy was filled with challenges. She was told to prepare for a miscarriage and that her babies wouldn’t make it. She was then hospitalized and laid in bed for three months while her medical team did everything in their power to keep the twins alive and healthy in order to reach full term. 

“We know God is the God of miracles. I laid in bed for three months. Every time I would stand up, I would leak amniotic fluid,” Jayme recalled

Her medical team tried to stop Jamie’s body from going into labor, but they couldn’t stop it and took Jayme in for a C-section. Sadly, their daughter Faith passed away, but Nash made it. The doctors were relieved that Jayme made it because they were sure they were going to lose her, too.

“He said, ‘Your daughter is a hero. She lived long enough to give her brother a chance at life. But died soon enough to save you,’” she said. The doctors didn’t realize until it was too late that Jayme had been bleeding internally behind the babies. But the challenges didn’t stop there. Nash was diagnosed with cerebral palsy and autism and spent a lot of time in the NICU before he could come home. 

Years later, Nate and Jayme dreamed of completing their family but faced the heartache of five miscarriages before welcoming their daughter, Blair.

From the start, Blair was a force to be reckoned with, determined to chase her dreams. Often, she sacrificed her aspirations for the sake of her brother, Nash, because of his special needs. Yet, with her father’s support, she pursued her dream of owning a horse, even though competing seemed out of reach for their family.

Tragedy struck again when Jayme’s father fell ill and passed away. Before his death, he urged Jayme to use her inheritance to buy a horse trailer with special accommodations for Nash. This promise led them to Hart Trailers, where a team designed a travel trailer and camper to accommodate Nash and help Blair pursue her passions. What made this journey even more meaningful was that Amberley Snyder, a paraplegic barrel racer, prays over each trailer before it’s sold. You won’t believe the incredible detail and thoughtfulness that was put into the design. 

This heartwarming story beautifully illustrates hope, faith, and community. It reminds us that God weaves all things together for our good, even in the face of profound loss. With faith, all dreams—even the most ambitious—can become possible.

Romans 8:28 “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who[a] have been called according to his purpose.”

Heroic Officers Save Choking Baby in Dramatic Rescue Captured on Video

When time is of the essence, two heroic officers step up to save a choking baby in this dramatic rescue captured on video. The two officers from the Highstown Police Department are being hailed as heroes. Officer Officers Daniel Abbatemarco and Kenneth Larson responded to a distress call. They arrived on the scene on the side of the road to find a frantic family and a baby in grave danger.

The baby had begun to choke while she was in her car seat. Upon arriving, the officers quickly assessed the situation and immediately recognized the severity of the infant's condition. Without missing a second, Officers Abbatemarco and Larson began performing the infant Heimlich maneuver, a critical technique designed to clear the airway of choking victims. The parents were frantic and begging the officers to save the baby’s life. 

Throughout the tense moments, the officers remained calm and collected, reassuring the distressed family, which was incredible to watch. Once they cleared the baby’s airway, they coaxed the baby girl to cry. 

“Let’s let out a cry, sweetheart,” one of the officers said as the other held the little girl in his arms. Once she was able to breathe, she let out a wail from the terrifying ordeal. Soon after, the paramedics arrived and they praised the officers for knowing exactly what to do. This story would have been tragic if the officers did not know how to do the infant Heimlich maneuver. They only had precious seconds to save the little girl’s life.

The video was posted online and gained thousands of views and hundreds of comments of praise. One viewer put herself in the parent's shoes. She commented, “I can only imagine how the parents feel at the moment. A parent's nightmare. This is why people need CPR classes.” Another person commented, “Not all heroes wear capes;” we couldn't agree more.  Another viewer said she loved seeing the softer side of the police department. She added, “Absolutely in love with this video! I love seeing the softer side of officers and seeing the community come together to support this family️ I'm just tickled pink that your munchkin made it outta the dark. The first cry sent goosebumps from head to toe.”

What a blessed sound that first cry was. We are so thankful for everyday heroes like these officers. We hope this video of their courage brightened your day. 

Joshua 1:9 "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."

What is our daily life supposed to look like? Easy, free, without trouble? #toughquestionsforgod #dailydevotion

WHEN HIS GLORY FALLS DOWN

I recorded this prophetic a cappella song when the Spirit of the Lord fell on me. It was an awesome feeling I had to capture the download. Come on Glory.

Retiring Mailman Receives Heartfelt Send-Off From Community After Years of Service

A retiring mailman received a heartfelt send-off from the community members on his route after more than 30 years on the job.

Retiring can be a bittersweet moment. Throughout their working lives, most people save and put away money, hoping that they will one day be able to retire. Retirement is the dream for most people. Who wants to work their whole life? There’s so much to do and see in this world. Why spend all that time working if retirement is a possibility?

When that last day of work finally arrives, it can hit like a brick wall. When that day comes, most people will likely feel many different emotions. Yes, they are pleased to be able to stop working, but there is a part of them that may not necessarily miss the job but will miss the people they worked with and for. That is what life is about anyway: people and those relationships.

A sweet, tear-jerking video on social media captured a longtime mailman’s last day of work after 31 years. In the clip, the gentleman mentions that he has worked on the same route for 24 and a half years.

Over the more than two decades he has been delivering mail on that specific route, those people have become like family to him. He cared for them, worried about them and celebrated with them. He added that he and the people he delivered mail to grew up together.

“You’re walking the same route every day, 12.2 miles,” he said. “And all of a sudden, a sign shows up in the yard: ‘Congratulations, we had a boy.’ And then next thing you know, ‘Congratulations, I just graduated from high school.’ Then it’s ‘Congratulations, I just graduated from college.’ So, those whole things, when you watch start to finish, unforgettable.”

On his last work day, community members did not forget about him either. Everyone came out to say goodbye and wish him a happy retirement. Everywhere he went, people greeted him and thanked him for his service and for being more than just someone who delivered the mail.

“This was it. This was the best send-off that could be. What a way to walk off,” he said.

Trusting in God's Promises | Mike Fabarez

This message explores the certainty of God’s promises amidst life's struggles. It emphasizes that true victory may not come in this lifetime, but God’s ultimate plan of vindication is certain. Drawing from Isaiah 40 and John 14, the speaker highlights the enduring hope in God's Word, urging believers to trust in His promise of peace, no matter how long it may take. Through faith, we find strength to overcome challenges, knowing that every knee will bow, and every tongue will confess the glory of the Lord.

Lead Singer of 3 Doors Down Speaks of Christ’s Love During Powerful Concert Moment

Brad Arnold, the lead singer of the rock group 3 Doors Down, spoke of Christ’s love during one of the band’s concerts, making for a powerful moment.

Many people today are broken and lost, feeling alone and unloved. They erroneously believe, for one reason or another, that no one cares or loves them and that their lives mean nothing. They believe there is no hope and see no end to their struggle and pain.

People are in desperate need of Christ’s love, healing and forgiveness. But how can they accept or receive something they have never heard of? That’s why it’s so crucial for Christians to share the message of Christ’s love. That was exactly what the lead singer of 3 Doors Down did during one of the band’s concert stops.

A clip posted on YouTube captures Brad, the singer of songs like “Kryptonite” and “Here Without You,” addressing a crowd of thousands. Brad admits that he typically doesn’t speak much during concerts but that “something was put on my heart.” He informs concertgoers that they matter, and even when they feel alone and broken, Jesus Christ loves them.

Brad says that the world constantly tells people they don’t deserve love. He goes on to add that people are repeatedly told that they are not good enough in this or that way, that they don’t measure up, and that they fail to miss the mark.

“They’re driven down our throats every single day, that we’ll never be good enough, and that nobody really, really loves us,” he said. “But my friends, I just want to take a second to tell you that’s an absolute lie. You are loved. You are loved, and you are enough, and you will win. Not only can you win, but you will win. And you’ll always be enough for one reason, and that’s because Jesus Christ loves you.”

Later in the clip, Brad states that Christ's love for us remains even in our many stumbles, falls and failures.

Before the end of the clip, Brad asks if the crowd would do him a favor and repeat some words after him.

“I am the one that Jesus loves,” Brad says.

What a powerful and moving moment of someone using their platform and influence to share the love of Christ with thousands.

Romans 5:8 “But God has made clear his love to us, in that, when we were still sinners, Christ gave his life for us.”

Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman Brighten the Day of 8-Year-Old Battling Cancer

Actors Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman helped to brighten the day of an 8-year-old battling a rare form of cancer.

Some truly terrible things happen in this world. Turn on a local or national television news broadcast or go to any news-oriented website, and you’ll quickly be confronted with one, but likely multiple instances detailing a horrible, heartbreaking situation. Sadly, there is no escaping it. It is all around us in this fallen, lost world.

But whatever awful situation you may read or hear about, there is one that will always hit you right square in the gut: children battling deadly diseases. Children are the most innocent and vulnerable members of society. Hearing one of those little ones has cancer or some other life-threatening condition is enough to bring tears to most people’s eyes.

In a clip posted on social media, Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman do what they can to help bring a smile to a young man battling cancer. The joy the two gentlemen bring the 8-year-old is enough to make you smile.

Nash, an 8-year-old fighting a rare form of cancer, is a massive fan of Ryan and Hugh. The video begins with Nash coloring at a table when he’s interrupted by Ryan unexpectedly entering the room. Ryan informs the little guy that there is no way out of the room and that, unfortunately, he’s stuck with him.

Nash is left speechless, unable to comprehend that Ryan Reynolds has just entered the room. 

Ryan sits down with the young man, spends time with him and carries on a conversation. He informs Nash that what he’s going through is enormous for someone of his young age to have to endure. He also tells the little guy that the grit, perseverance and determination he develops during this situation will serve him well in life.

Near the end of the clip, Ryan brings up Hugh on his phone, who greets the young man and gives him some encouragement.

Ryan’s visit with Nash ends with the two of them warmly embracing.

Ephesians 4:32 “And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you.”

Man Turns Coworker’s Entire Workstation Into a Lego Masterpiece

One man played a prank on his coworker and turned his entire workstation into a LEGO masterpiece.

Everyone must make a living and find a way to pay those pesky and annoying bills that seem to arrive every month. For most people, the answer to their bill issue is to get a 9-to-5 position that will pay enough to meet those financial obligations. That weekly or bi-weekly paycheck always makes going into the office worth it.

While we should all be grateful when the Lord provides us a way to make a living, working an everyday job can get old fast. Going to the same place and doing the same thing Monday through Friday can become dull and might even make you resent your place of work.

Well, one man found a way to bring a little change and add fun to his work life. Likely inspired by the classic television show The Office, one man played a hilarious prank on his coworker who was on vacation for two weeks.

In the clip posted on YouTube, the young man announces that he has decided to turn his coworker’s workstation, including his desk and computer, into the LEGO version. He only has two weeks to complete his prank, so he has to work fast.

His transformation begins easily enough with the contents of the coworker’s mug—pens, highlighters, scissors and the mug itself. Then, he quickly moves on to the stapler, tape dispenser and even the trash can.

Then, the young man unveils the LEGO computer screens that he has expertly crafted using the tiny toy blocks. Hilariously enough, the computer monitors are even built to make it appear his coworker is in the middle of a game of solitaire.

His handiwork is complete as he puts the final piece in place. He carries a smooth, large brown LEGO surface that will now serve as his coworker’s desk. Once he locks it into place, the transformation is finally finished.

When the man, Jerry, returns to find his workstation, which is now a LEGO masterpiece, he takes it all in stride. There were several laughs, and he even critiqued what he could have or should have done better.

Proverbs 17:22 “A glad heart makes a healthy body, but a crushed spirit makes the bones dry.”

School Janitor’s Emotional Reaction to Students’ Jeep Surprise Will Warm Your Heart

A high school janitor's emotional reaction to a group of students' Jeep surprise will warm your heart.

Life can and often is a struggle to survive. The concerns, worries and burdens that typically accompany everyday living can weigh and run you down physically and mentally. Unfortunately, there will be instances that push you to your brink, causing you to cry out for help.

When life's dark valleys and storms arrive, remember that God has promised He will never leave nor forsake us. Even when it may seem that He has disappeared or ceased to be involved, He is still working in that situation. No problem or circumstance is too big for Him.

Additionally, God also uses those around us in these situations. He'll also allow those around us to shower us with love and kindness even when we aren't struggling or hurting. It's one of the many ways the Lord shows how much he loves and cares for us.

In a short but touching clip posted on YouTube, a group of high school students came together to show how much they love and appreciate a janitor at their school. Francis Apraku works at a Virginia high school, and he has struck up friendships with the students.

The students mentioned that Francis is always such a friendly, caring individual. One of the students said Francis is the first person to ask about their problems if they were having a bad day. He genuinely cares about them, showing them kindness and concern.

The students, wanting to return the favor, decided to do something nice for Francis. The video states that the hard-working janitor sends money to his relatives in Ghana. But the students asked him if he could buy anything at all for himself. If he could, what would it be? A Jeep Wrangler, Francis told them.

That's precisely what the students set out to buy. They immediately started a fundraising campaign, raising $22,000 for the Jeep Wrangler.

When the moment arrived, and the boys presented Francis with the 2015 Jeep Wrangler, he was brought to his knees with tears streaming from his eyes.

"I can't believe this in America," Francis said. "Only in America. America is a great country. I mean, God bless America."

Ephesians 4:32 "And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you."
