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.

Overwhelmed with love.....

Dave and I had such a wonderful Christmas. We are blessed with amazing friends and family. My little bothers and sisters took their Christmas money and gave it towards their little nephew. No words could ever describe that moment, pure love. Even though we didn't buy much, because we are saving all that we can for the adoption this holiday season was stress free and so full of love.

Now, as we head into 2010 I am looking forward to many things that we have been believing for to come to pass. 2010 is our year!! (you can claim that for yourself as well). With God ALL things are possible.

An update on the grant trail.... One of our grants is being reviewed and we will hear something by the 1st week of February. We are thanking God and giving Him all the glory that we will get a "yes" so we can bring our son home. The other 2 grants are being reviewed and we haven't heard anymore other than have patience.

Thank you for standing with us! We will be meeting our little guy soon and then bringing him home.

Giving God ALL the glory and thanking Him in ALL things.....

Happy New Year!!

I Am Blessed!

Dave and I had a fabulous Thanksgiving! We are even more excited that these will be the last holidays we spend without a little one running around!!

We are still moving forward with finances for our little guy. Just last week I found out that we don't need visas for Korea...Praise God! I had estimated about $300 for our visas, that is more money we get to deduct from what we need. We haven't heard anything from our grants YET, but we will very soon!

Giving God all the glory with ever step we take!

Standing!!

Things have moved increasingly fast for us with this adoption. As of last week we were #4 on the waiting list for a little boy. Yesterday I got an email that stated we are now #2!! We are so exciting!! The only thing that stands in our way now is finances. You know what? That is not a big deal for our very awesome & faithful God!!

We continue to stand on the Word that came out of our spirits during a rough time while living in China..... WE TRUST YOU LORD,NO MATTER WHAT!!

Please stand with us for a provisional miracle, all the grants that we are applying for get processed fast and that we get a "yes" to all of them and for our little guy in Korea.

Dave and I love you all very much!! Thank You!!
