Isaac.

The name “Isaac” is a way-making name. Biblically, a pregnancy where there was biology and doubt in the way. A ram provided in the wake of surrender. It’s a name that, when things look grim, God shows that he’s more powerful than science. That he loves his people AND their children. And today, it’s showing me that God knew this story on the day my boy was born and we named him, “Isaac”.

In his bath tonight, Isaac asked, "Did God give me cancer?"

"Hmmm." I said, "What do you think?"

"No," he said, "I think God is who is keeping my heart beating."

I can't think of a more important truth.
