"You have multiplied, O Lord my God,
your wondrous deeds and your thoughts
towards us; none can compare with you!
I will proclaim and tell of them, yet they are
more than can be told."
Psalm 40:5
We are beyond grateful to announce that we received our referral from Rwanda this morning of the most beautiful baby boy! He is beyond what we could have hoped for...perfect in every way for our family. As we prayed before opening the e-mail, I wept for God's goodness and faithfulness to our family over the past two years. This journey has been so painful as God has used it to refine us with the fire of waiting. However, we can honestly say that we love Him more today than we did two years ago. His faithfulness to walk with us, to hear our lament, to have mercy on us in our doubt has increased our affections for him. May His name be lifted higher because of our story. The Lord is good and his mercy endures forever. Amen
Congratulations, that is super news! I am really pleased for your family as you have been waiting so long for this day. Our best wishes for your journey to Rwanda and enjoy every minute with your newest addition:)

ReplyDeleteSuch amazing news. Can't wait to "meet" him.
ReplyDeleteSo priviledged for Laura, Maddie Grace and Nate to have spent the night with us on Thursday, and got to share in the excitement (boy was there some hollering going on, I thought the house was on fire, Laura was screaming for us to hurry, come see)to hear Chase pray before they opened the email, to see the looks of amazement on MG & Nate's faces as they saw their brother for the first time, to see Laura fall instantly in love with her new son,joy, tears, my first look at my new beautiful grandbaby. God has been so faithful over a very, very long period in our lives. I am one happy "Mammy". Thank you Jesus for so much.
