  1. A little miracle amongst all the wreckage and tormoil! Praying for even more miracles in Jesus Christ’s name.

  2. This baby is a God. So powerful his bitth caused the Warth to shake. True facts, thats why it was a shallow earthquake πŸ˜‰

  3. No human can even comprehend what those little ones experienced burried alive in dark and cold for tens of hours. If watching and knowing this does nto make your heart ache, no matter who they are, where they were born, what language they speak, there is something fundamentally wrong with you.

    1. Sadly I know a person that would not be affected by this. He cries for his dogs, buys them expensive food and things but when it comes to a human being…even an innocent child, he does not care. Yes, there is something fundamentally wrong with him. Sadly there are many people like that that walk this Earth.

  4. We want to adopt this baby

  5. Haven’t these people been through enough?! Over a decade of civil war and now this. Their cries of joy amidst complete devastation brings me a small amount of solace. I know that God is with them. I’m praying for their relief and healing.

  6. God Bless every last 1cof you. Oh My God Thank you So Much. Thank God you had the Strength that God gave you to Rescue All of those sweet little munchkins.
