Once there was a mother who conceived her second child. She loves the Lord so much that she dedicated her child to the Lord from the moment she conceived it. Sadly, she was so sick that she has to take high dosage of medication just to get well. Her husband has to sign a waiver indicating that the doctor is not liable to whatever happens to the baby every time she's given a medicine or injection . It was difficult for them but there wasn't much of a choice.
At last, the baby girl was born and when the father saw the baby he turned his face away from the baby in disappointment. With a big bump on her head, with wrinkled skin, and just an ugly appearance the doctor told them that the baby is abnormal and they have to take her to a specialist. Because of the lack of resources they were not able to see a specialist but instead they got down on their knees and ask for a miracle. With that the father said, "No matter what she looks like and what will she become, we'll still love her."

Two months later, the father exclaimed looking at the baby, "Amazing grace! Amazing grace!" The bump on her head was gone, her skin was so smooth, her appearance changed into a beautiful baby. She was then named "Amazing Grace" in her childhood. Her appearance is now normal, the next question is her brain...will she be able to talk, walk, play, live like most normal children do and later go to school, decide for herself....do things like normal people do...? Later they knew that she could have been a hydrocephalic child.
Well... amazingly, she's writing this amazing story of hers continuing to experience God's amazing grace every single moment of her life.
Without His amazing grace I won't be here typing with my own hands on this keyboard in a far distant nation joining this amazing race in life as Paul says, "let us run the race with endurance God has set before us"(Hebrews 12:1).
Join me in running this amazing race! On the way there will always be trials, we might fall on the road, get hurt and have bruises ( which literally I had) but the reward is also amazing that you could never imagine.
I want you to experience His amazing grace too!

"Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me...
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see"
