Merry Christmas
The Christmas holiday does not slow down the pace of Macey's rehabilitation. Christmas as well as today will be filled with non-stop therapy, with a few added holiday activities! On Tuesday all of Macey's doctors will have a meeting to schedule a predicted day for discharge! We could not believe after only a couple days in rehabilitation, they are already thinking of a day to release her from the hospital! I wanted to dedicate this blog to specifically thank God for everything He has given my family. Doctors are blown away with Macey's recovery and the only explanation is the grace of God. He has used my sister, of all people, to bring my family and thousands of families around the world together and closer to Him. He has united thousands of people that may have never even met Macey to remind us we are all His children. He has used Macey to remind us there is a God that performs miracles and makes us realize how every breath, blink, and word spoken is a gift. Each day God creates for us is a blessing in itself, not a given right. I used to think why would God do this to such a kind beautiful young woman, but that is exactly why He did this. I praise God that He used Macey to expose her hundreds of friends and family members to His abilities. On this Christmas I just pray that everyone will look around at your family and all your precious blessings. He has created a beautiful world, hasn't He? Thank you Lord for giving me my sister this Christmas. Macey's miracle is the best gift we could have ever received. Merry Christmas and thank you all for your continuous prayers!

Beautiful McKenzie. Just as God is using Macey, you are also an instrument in His hands by creating this blog about Macey's miracle because it reveals God's glory to countless people throughout the world. You're so right about why God would allow such a thing to happen. From our "here and now" perspective, it seems like such a dreadful situation, but our life on earth is just a rehearsal for eternity in heaven. This life is all we know by means of experience, but by faith we know that God has a purpose for us here that is grander than anything we could fathom, and that, if we accept what Jesus did for us on the cross- He was the ultimate sacrifice for our sins so that we could have a relationship with God- we will live forever with our loving Father in heaven. Praise God for His glorious work in Macey's life, and remember to always rely on Him- not only through the tough times but all the time. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight." -Proverbs 3:5-6. I love you all =)))
