Last week was such a trying week, not with adoption but personally. Sometimes in life you wonder why things happen the way it does. We needed to help a family member out, And knowing that we would be using a little of the money to bring Josie home..or to finalize the adoption. Family members didn't want us to help. But I told them God has gotten us this far, he has laid this on our hearts...God will not let us down.
That evening I get a call that a friend wanted to drop off a card at my office. I was on my way to drop off Johnny at practice. So, I went by the office to pick up the card..Words can not express the feeling I felt when I read that card! This is what it said...
"A few months ago I sent out an email to those on my email list and requested they save their pop cans for me. I explained that the money I obtained from recycling them would go toward the expenses of someone else who was trying to adopt or toward orphan relief in general. I have enclosed money received from this recycling project. I know it's not much but I also know God can take it and multiply it. May God Bless you and your family. You are in our prayers "Yours in Christ" A,R,J (and all those who brought me their cans)"
I didn't want to post their names..God knows who you are...Thank you!!!
After reading that God spoke to me.."I will provide, trust in me" So, with that we have emailed everyone on our email list to ask them to save their pop cans...We will use 1/2 of the money raised to take medicine, clothes and much needed items to the orphange that Josie is located..So, if you feel the need to save those cans..please do. Let me know and we can come and pick them up! God is amazing!

As reading this blog, I want to cry for tears of joy.. That was so sweet of the friends to help each other out at the time of need. Thanks for being the woman you are!
He sure is!!! And he owns all the cattle on the hill and loves orphans! Bless your hearts for your compassion on your family member, God often multiplies those gifts!
We are only stewards of what He has given us. What wonderful friends you have and what a privilege to see God provide for you and your family.
