Yes, every bit of the below story is true, it is a very good read.
In a recent email, I read about a woman named Pam, who knows the pain of considering abortion. More than 24 years ago, she and her husband Bob were serving as missionaries to the Philippines and praying for a fifth child. Pam contracted amoebic dysentery, an infection of the intestine caused by a parasite found in contaminated food or drink. She went into a coma and was treated with strong antibiotics before they discovered she was pregnant.
Doctors urged her to abort the baby for her own safety and told her that the medicines had caused irreversible damage to her baby. She refused the abortion and cited her Christian faith as the reason for her hope that her son would be born without the devastating disabilities physicians predicted. Pam said the doctors didn’t think of it as a life, they thought of it as a mass of fetal tissue.
While pregnant, Pam nearly lost their baby four times but refused to consider abortion. She recalled making a pledge to God with her husband: If you will give us a son, we’ll name him Timothy and we’ll make him a preacher.
Pam ultimately spent the last two months of her pregnancy in bed and eventually gave birth to a healthy baby boy August 14, 1987. Pam’s youngest son is indeed a preacher. He preaches in prisons, makes hospital visits, and serves with his father’s ministry in the Philippines . He also plays football. Pam’s son is Tim Tebow.
The University of Florida’s star quarterback became the first sophomore in history to win college football’s highest award, the Heisman Trophy. His current role as quarterback of the Denver Broncos has provided an incredible platform for Christian witness. As a result, he is being called The Mile-High Messiah.
Tim’s notoriety and the family’s inspiring story have given Pam numerous opportunities to speak on behalf of women’s centers across the country.Pam Tebow believes that every little baby you save matters.I pray her tribe will increase!
May the peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you always!

To all of the Tebow bashers out there, who believe he is praying for God to cause him to win, or you do not like his kneeling pose, remember one thing. Tim Tebow is not asking the Lord for a victory, nor is God causing his phenomenal play at times. He is simply THANKING GOD. That is it.
If you are fool enough to believe God controls the NFL, remember, in the NFL, Roger Goodell believes he is God, and does as he pleases. The Bible teaches Christians not to hide that fact, but to share it. It is a strong belief, and if the horrible man we have leading this country is allowed to tell us all not to offend Muslims, why are we as Christians being hammered? Bill Maher, that Suggs thug from the Ravens and many others comment on his faith. They are entitled to do that as well. Remember the Constitution gives us that Freedom of Religion thing? There you go. A good and positive
role model, and man of integrity. Tim Tebow. If Denver does not win the Super Bowl, will you all blame God? It is a game people. Good luck Tim, and to the Denver Broncos. God bless you all.
God bless the United States of America!
