Cry Out for Levi
It's an easy thing to pray. Only a short few minutes of our day, asking, talking, sharing, praising Him who gives us so much.
So, today, I'm asking that you'll pray especially for someone close to our hearts here at beZao. Larisa & Matt are co-founders of Kirabo Foundation and over the course of the past 8 years, has adopted 5 children from Uganda. Levi, their youngest & newest son has required a heart surgery since birth, and on February 11, he officially & legally joined their family and headed to the hospital for preparations. Here is an excerpt from their blog.
Almost exactly six months ago, Levi came home. He is 3 years old, not
quite 3 feet tall, 27 pounds and a force to be reckoned with. He loves
Cheerios, milk and to "go mama's car." He is always helping, always
busy, rarely sleeps past 6 a.m. and flirts like crazy. He has the worst
temper in our family and the best smile. At the orphanage in Uganda
that was his home, he was known as "the mayor." To him and to us, he is
now "Bee-bi."
He is here because his mother died shortly after
he was born and his father couldn't care for him. He is also here
because he had a congenital heart condition that can't be repaired in
Uganda, where he was born.
Monday, we will finalize the adoption
of Levi and two other Ugandan boys, John and Timothy, who came to our
home at the same time. Tuesday we head to the hospital to ensure that
Levi will be our son for a long time to come.
Since his recent surgery, his case has become much more complex, and although the best doctors in America are working with him, God is the most perfect healer, so we're asking for your prayers!
