I have to say that I was overwhelmed today with the prayers and kind words of so many. I asked for prayer and boy could I feel it! So many people sent messages, gave toward our FSP, and shared our need for prayer. I truly was left with happy tears before it was all over with. I could just feel the prayers going up and I have to believe that tiny Keith felt them today too!
That warms my heart! The little boy who has been so forgotten for so long is not forgotten. The devil may have thought he would keep him there hidden, but he won't! God has a hold on my tiny boy now! There are lots of Christians praying and the devil doesn't have a fighting chance!
We saw some movement today. Our Senator's office has been told that our stuff will reach the next stop on Wednesday. The letter about Keith's medical situation was forwarded by the wonderful lady who has been helping us to the USCIS officer. I am trusting God is going to keep this thing moving and praising Him for the help we were able to get from Senator Portman's staff lady who has been so helpful and understanding. God is on the move and your all's prayers are so appreciated!!
I was pretty spent there for a while today. Then I realized that my tiny "Chromosomally Enhanced" Princess was asleep. Well I knew that was a gift for the perfect nap for me. I had just had a Facebook conversation with a wonderful praying adoptive mom who encouraged me so much. My teenage son Denzell and Dayton both said they had it covered here and all the kids were so good, so I laid down with my cuddle bug and took a little nap!
How could anyone resist that cuddle bug!?!
I woke up feeling refreshed and I'm just sure it was from your prayers and those of so many others. I awoke to news from a friend in our homeschool group that her mother in law's group of ladies decided to make a whole bunch of homemade pillow cases as their service project this month and give them to us. What a wonderful thing to be able to tell my kids someone did for them! They are loved and people care!!
I felt so energized and like nesting this evening so we accomplished a whole bunch. You can read more about that HERE on our family blog along with rooming arrangements we are working out. :)
Thank you so much for all your prayers and encouragement in so many ways! The devil lost today, because I am going to bed thankful and bold in God's love and the wonderful Family of God that I am a part of!
If you have been a part of the giving to our FSP, sharing the waiting children, sharing our story, or donating to the Hidden Treasures Auction that starts Sunday, PLEASE let me know so that I can thank you, add you to our Giveaway, etc. The details are HERE.
Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH! Keep praying, because God is going to do big things!
Love it! It's always darkest before the dawn, right?
