Where God wanted usWe lived by the seashore this last 2 weeks with our house full of kids God has blessed us with. There were 2 adult kids, adopted at young ages, both in college, one of them preparing to leave soon for Air Force boot camp. The other 8 are kids who came by other miraculous ways to be ours, 4 in the midst of the long adoption process, one already adopted after surviving myriad life threatening illnesses, and 3 we anxiously await word on whether they can enter the adoption process. All 8 rumbled through the sand, the water, the ice cream shops, the late nights, sand dunes, and souvenir junk shops as one unit of Gods love delivered to this little spot for this little time.Tomorrow we will roll out of here at 8:30 to catch the ferry. We need 3 spots on the ferry this year; one for the van, one for the jeep, and one for the trailer. The tide will have reset the beach sand to the state God wants it in, the maids will come to the house to reset the house to the condition the owner wants. We will proceed home over the day, and it will be like we were never here. But we were. Our hearts are indelibly blessed with the grace of God in this lovely little spot, this place of peace where the sound of His voice resonates as the heartbeat of the ocean. We have laughed and cried, had birthdays and daily devotions, fished, had timeouts, and stayed up to late. We even had a record 6 visits to the emergency room. Thanks God for a lovely time. Now we get back to work. 4:33 PM - Jun. 12, 2009 - post comment
