Mar. 20, 2007 - Where My Heart Is...

Well, it's a beautiful day here in British Columbia.  I have a lot on my heart and mind.  As you know, my friend, Connie and I went to Africa in February to bring home their second child from Liberia.  My heart was touched deeply by two young boys while I was there. 

We have two children already - L, who is our biological son, and M, our daughter who is adopted from Thailand.  My heart's cry is to adopt at least one of these boys from Liberia.  I thought our family was complete, but I think God has other plans.  I just cannot get these two young African boys off my mind.  They both have beautiful smiles, and I miss them so much.  At this point, I have to believe that God will perform a miracle as there are lots of hurdles in our way.  I guess I have to be patient.    I never WAS good at that.  Perhaps I'm crazy and imagining all of this, but I just cannot stop thinking of these two lovely boys and their bright faces - despite their difficult circumstances.  And now I hear that the children at the orphanage are not getting enough food - what a helpless feeling it is not to be able to help.

And so I pray ... and wait on the Lord to work a BIG miracle, as only He can.

Hey there. This must be frustrating for you. I know your heart and I also know some of the struggles you face. If God wants this to happen, expect some big miracles to happen. I'll be praying for the really big one that I know is at the top of your list. I think all the rest will fall into place once God has dealt with this one. No grandbaby on the scene yet but it should be here any day. I had my podcast and will send you the link when I get it. Blessings and give my love to everyone.

Hello dear!
I finally found your blog! I used to help a family with their aviary, and I love all those birds. Toucans were fun to see! I'd love to vist you and Connie someday.

Blessings on you and may the God of Heaven Who is All-Powerful, answer your prayers!
