Quote of the day....

" Praise be to the Lord, for he heard my cry for mercy. The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song. The Lord is the strength of his people."

Psalm 28:6-8a

Enough said.....

Eleven

Eleven months of waiting...officially. Sadly, I feel that we are no where close to the end of our process. There are so many unknowns. This I know..."God is good, He is gracious, and He can move mountains. His ways are much higher than my ways. " So.... I will BE STILL and WAIT on the Lord.

Happy 13th B-day!

Happy, happy birthday to our sweet MacKenzie! I really can't believe your are entering in the "teen" years. Your smile warms our hearts. Your grateful heart is a breath of fresh air. Your determination is inspiring! Daddy and I are so, so blessed to be called your parents. "Sweet girl, as you enter a new season of childhood, I pray that you would love Jesus more than you ever have. I pray that you will be able to feel His presence and grace in everyday situations- whether big or small. I pray for boldness in your words and the way you live your life. Remember God did not give you a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and self-discipline. Always, always remember love- it never fails." Kenz, we are so proud of you. We love you more than you'll ever know- ever!

Note to self......Rosie is not a fan of snow. Maybe next year?

Tired?

When I get tired, weary, empty, or should I say....HAVE JUST HAD ENOUGH! I am so thankful that my gracious "Father" does not feel the same.

"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."

Isaiah 40:28-31
