The Wonders of God..
The Houston International Airport was as crowded as ever with people rushing to catch their flights. And then, in the middle of the crowd, Shadow, an experienced German Shepherd K9 started barking fetociously at a woman waiting in the long queue. It was quite an unprecedented action as she was 7 months pregnant and appeared to be terribly frightened by the dog’s reaction.
Nevertheless, the dogs were rarely wrong and officers asked her to step forward. They conducted a thorough search of her belongings, but found nothing out of the ordinary on her. Yet, Shadow wouldn’t stop sniffing her and barking at her.
The officers were confused and contemplated their next move. Should they let the woman go?
She was heavily pregnant and the entire situation made her upset and uncomfortable.
And then, just as they decided to let her go, Agent Grant remembered that Shadow was also trained as medical alert service dog. Rather than her being a smuggler or carrying a dangerous weapon, could there be something medically wrong with this woman? He wondered.
Just to be sure, he explained to her that Shadow was a special dog and he would like her permission to call the emergency services to check on her. Although she hesitated at first, the woman eventually agreed.
To everyone’s surprise, the medics discovered uterine rupture, which is a serious and rare childbirth complication where the muscle wall of the uterus tears under pressure.
The woman was quickly rushed to the nearby hospital where she was operated and gave birth prematurely.
Her baby was still tiny and placed in an incubator, but luckily, both he and his mother were fine.
That day, Shadow saved two lives. His strong senses allowed him to detect that something wasn’t right with that woman’s child.
Dogs have up to 300 million scent receptors and are able to detect chemicals or changes in body odor caused by diseases or other medical emergencies.
A few days after the incident, Shadow and Agent Grant paid the woman a visit at the hospital where she and the staff gave an appreciative “thank you” to Shadow in a brightly lit hospital ward.
Such are the immense wonders of God.
A God who knew in advance and selected an animal to be man's best friend also equipped it with ability to detect when something is wrong medically within a human being.
A God who equipped dogs with up to 300 million scent receptors so that they are able to detect chemicals or changes in body odor caused by diseases or other medical emergencies in a woman it has never seen before..
Something no machine with all its sensors and gadgets can do till date..
What a friend we have in Jesus.. All glory to his name.
