Great is the Lord! Psalm 145

I am honestly overwhelmed and speechless. In one month the Lord has provided the last $13,000 and as of today, Tuesday August 28th, I can finally say our adoption is FUNDED! In less than a week there will be one less orphan in the world!

Thank you so much to all who lifted us up in prayer! I can't tell you how many people contacted me over the last month, many of them complete strangers all with the same story "the Lord has led me to support you through giving" some even going as far as to say "this is something I have never done before but I feel strongly that this is what the Lord is calling me to do!" Don't ever underestimate the power of prayers my friends! 

Thank so much to all who took the time to respond to my post and emails! Your words of encouragement is what kept me going at times. This has been a long and lonely road. It has been a struggle of trusting God and learning to leave completely dependent on Him and often times I failed. I truly believe the Lord sent each of you just at the right time to lift my spirits when times were tough. So many times when I felt my worst you came along side me and shared scripture with me, encouraged me, and cheered me on. You will never know how much each of you mean to me. Yes, I copied and saved each and ever email to share with Nathaniel one day. 

Last but not least, none of this would have been possible without those of you who acted in obedience to what the Lord was calling you to do! Thank you so much for supporting our adoption through giving. Your gift no matter how big or small as impacted my family in ways you will never imagine. It has been nothing but pure joy to watch my children grow in their faith. We celebrated every gift we received whether it was a check in the mail, a donation to our chipin, a donation to LifeSong, or a donation to one of our yard sales. It has been amazing to see God at work through each of you!

 May the Lord bless each of you abundantly for your sacrificial giving!
