Today

Today I board a plane to fly out and spend a week with Grace, Abigail and Anna. Today Grace will exit a plane onto American soil with Anna. Today is a beginning. Today is amazing.

I have many thoughts and emotions swirling around in my head. I am not the writer that Grace is and I will not even attempt to write any of it out.

As I was packing last night I put on Facing the Giants. I love this movie!! It ministers to my heart every time I watch it. (Check it out if you haven't seen it!) Last night I was thinking about all who are waiting. Those who are paper chasing (or paper racing), those on the wait list, those with referrals waiting for a court date, and those who are waiting for their next court date. I would like to send this clip out to all of you. May it motivate you as it applies to your wait. While I'm not waiting for a child there are things in my life that I am waiting on God for. Last night I allowed this to give me renewed strength and vision to fulfill God's will for me during this waiting time.

Please take the time to watch this through until the end. (6 minutes)

I hope your visit is wonderful. Thank you so much for keeping us updated during Grace's trip! I love that clip from Facing the Giants. Coincidentally, I looked for it this past weekend and showed it to my husband.

Have a safe trip and hug everyone for us!

May Grace and Abigail (and the rest of your family) be richly blessed by this new addition.

I wonder sometimes what it is that makes us "see" God.

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
