“A
5K Event”
In McRae, Georgia, unfolds a sweet story
About
a special couple, Kaydee and Kory.
They
were high school friends, just having fun,
That
resulted in a wedding in 2001.
Newlyweds
focused the next couple years
On
finishing school and beginning careers.
Looking
at what the future held in store,
Like
many others, they wanted something more.
They adopted a puppy and named him Keats
But
he wasn’t quite enough to make their family complete.
So
they decided together and began to pray
That
God would send a new baby their way
He
has a plan for each one of us here
Even
when, to us, it’s not always clear.
It
happened! A baby was on its way!
Everything
went well til the third month one day.
God
had another plan for that baby, it seemed.
Devastated,
they longed for the baby they had dreamed.
But
every time our hearts break, even when we grieve
We know that He will heal it, if only we believe.
With
great faith, family and friends kept praying,
“Please
send them another baby!” That’s all they were saying.
God
did hear these prayers and His answer was grand!
He
said, “This blessing will be shared all over the land!
For
I’m not just sending one baby to you,
I’m
blessing you with a five-baby crew!”
Cheers
erupted from each family member and friend
The
blessings are coming seemingly without end.
The
doctors and nurses are taking great care,
Five
babies at once! That’s not common anywhere!
In
our little town, when we discover a family’s needs,
People
pour out their hearts with all sorts of good deeds.
A
community baby shower is the first thing we’ll do,
Planned
for Feb. 25, at the Rec Center at 2 !
Local
folks will come out and celebrate
With
hearts open wide and gifts to donate.
It
will be known as a “5K Event” in McRae
Because
each baby’s name begins with a “K”!
So
much is needed for these three girls and two boys,
Diapers
and clothes, blankets and toys!
Small
items like bottles, pacifiers and bibs,
Big
items like high chairs, swings and cribs!
Each
gift will be appreciated, and more importantly, each prayer
Because
it all comes from people showing they care.
Please
join us for this phenomenal event,
A
5K Blessing can only be Heaven-sent!
