To be perfectly honest with all of you, I have not wanted to talk that much about the birth of Silas with Jessica lately because in my heart there was a spirit that made me fear that I would lose her with this delivery. Even typing these words now my eyes are swelling up. None of you can imagine the pain and hurt that has been inside my heart because of this fear.
BUT… God has shown us His favor once again.
We left for the Siloam Hospital at 5:15 am Jakarta, Indonesia time on Friday, September 5th, 2008. At 8:45 am that same morning, my son, Silas Edward Brammer, was born. Here are his stats:
- He weighed in at 7 pounds and 11 1/2 ounces (3.5 kilo)
- He is 20.4 inches long (52 cm)

To have the awesome favor of God in your life is truly a blessing just knowing that all you have to do is trust the lord your God with all your heart & flow with His spirit, where ever it leads you. God’s immeasureable agape love is available to all who seek Him with their whole heart. He will never go against or force anyone to follow Him. Every person has been given a free will. The choice is up to you. Praise God. The lord is good, & His mercy endures forever.
