Today we got a beautiful call from LifeSong letting us know that we have been approved for a matching grant!!! I got the message and dialed LifeSong's # as fast as I could. My heart pounding, Abby answered the phone, we exchanged greetings, and then she said..."I have GREAT news for you!" I immediately cried and then apologized for melting down on her. I am sure they get that all the time. After all, they are in the business of bringing families together. So, now I have to send out support letters (which feels a bit awkward,but I will do it despite my feelings) and stand in faith that the full support comes in by the deadline, March 15th.
God is ALWAYS faithful! Now, we just need to get back on that list for our baby.

Not being moved!
Yesterday we found out some information about our adoption. Because we don't have all our finances, we went from #2 on the list for a little boy to not being on the list at all. We are waiting to hear what the procedures are when we do have all the money. There is some conflicting information at our agency. It certainly wasn't the news that we wanted to hear. However, we are standing on the truth of God's promises and refuse to be swayed otherwise. Now, if I can get my emotions to line up with my Spirit...they are almost lined up, but depending on the conversation I may cry. I did that this morning and felt stupid.
It is just money, not to big for God.

Welcome 2010!
Happy New Year!!! I love 2010 already!! This is going to be such a wonderful year and more importantly, it is the year our son comes home.
Good news on the grant trail.... We should hear back from three of the grants we have applied for by February. Two will contact us in January and one in Feb. Thanking the Father for "yeses" to all of them.
I pray that this year will be above and beyond all that you could ever think or imagine. Remember, God will always respond to your steps of faith. Action is required.
Now, I am off to work for a few hours and then it is church tonight.
