Maranatha Hope Hefling, Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome, HLHS, Blessings
Maranatha, which means the Lord is coming, was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) after an ultra sound at the 20th week of pregnancy. HLHS an extremely severe and rare congenital heart defect. HLHS occurs when parts of the left side of the heart (mitral valve, left ventricle, aortic valve, and aorta) do not develop completely. The condition is present at birth (congenital). In simple terms HLHS means that Maranatha does not have the left side of her heart. If left untreated, HLHS is fatal. Survival rates for the staged repair continue to rise as surgery techniques and care after surgery improve. Please continue to pray for Maranatha, as well as all those contributing to her care. Thank you.

A Prayer for God to Be Your Shield and Portion Today - Your Daily Prayer - May 24
I love this passage in the Bible because it sums up the spiritual reality in all difficult circumstances. How many times do we see the enemy and opposing forces against us, just like Elisha’s servant? And that puts us in a panic - yet the angelic armies of the Living God are unseen but present nonetheless, and far greater. We just need to see that substantial truth!
