My Post Last Night

Thank you all so much for your encouraging notes and words.  I do want to let you know that my post last night was not meant to be a "downer" or a post to communicate that we are discouraged.  Actually...yesterday was a very encouraging day where God unexpectedly provided $525 toward our adoption expenses.  It was SUCH a blessing for us!!!

Up until now though...this blog has basically been informational, and I wanted to transition it to be a place where we share what we're experiencing and share our feelings.  We documented our last adoption via blog and we created a book for us to save and for Sadie to have.  We wanted us all to be able to look back and see how God did amazing things and how walking in faith is sometimes doing it even if you are nervous or a little unsure of how things are going to work out.  It has been SUCH a blessing for us to look back and see God's hand in so many situations!

So...I am SO SORRY if my post seemed like it was lacking in faith.  It was just the raw, and real emotions of what we're feeling.  But Praise God....we are not dependent on what we feel...we are dependent upon what God says in His word!!

We are encouraged and excited about what the future holds.  EVEN in the midst of uncertainty!! We hope to be able to begin to share more of our heart here on the blog and less just information.  Because even when we are in China...there are a FLOOD of emotions and things that we will be experiencing...and we need the prayers of our friends and family holding our backs!!

Thank you ALL so much for your prayers...your encouragement...your participation in all our fundraisers!!! It has been amazing so far!! We are blown away that God has provided over $15,000 so far!! It truly is a miracle!! Now...we're waiting to see what He is going to do to provide the rest!! We are hopeful and encouraged!!!
