In Saturday’s scripture reading… Saul is chasing David…and David is literally running for his life. Just as Saul is about to catch up with and trap David…the Lord intervenes. The Lord sent an urgent message to Saul through his army that the Philistines were raiding Israel again. Saul had to immediately leave to go fight […]

Author Archives: adminHere is a sneak peak into the surprise shower my girlfriends gave for Isaac last night! I have been meeting for 2 years every other Thursday night with this precious group of mommas to dig in the Word, study scripture, eat dessert;) and support one another in our lives! Thank you Tammy for capturing this […] I think the cute bookbasket was my fav! Those “I” pastries looked super yummy! What sweet friends you have!! Makes me jealous considering our families wont even entertain the thought that we are adopting!! May God bless your son, Isaac. That was so sweet!!! What great friends you have 🙂 WOW! Now you’ve got me teary eyed (again). You are blessed indeed with special friends! How wonderful! What a special baby shower!!! What a beautiful shower! What wonderful friends you have! Looks like you were nicely surprised and had a great time! What’s better than your adoption agency calling and saying they received your referral packet??? (Happened at 5pm! Thank you God!) What’s better than the Fed Ex man knocking on your door to hand you your overnighted birth certificate so you can get a new passport expedited (since you lost your old one) so you can […] Okay, this one is even “feel gooder” than the last one. Hearing what Almaz says about Isaac brought me tears. He sounds like such a special boy. AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Almaz is just an angel on earth, and knows heaven on earth when she sees it! She wrote some very powerful words about our Hannah Grace when she was at HH. Will never forget it. Because to soo many Hannah was a child with needs- to Almaz and to us- she was an angel sent to earth for our hearts to hold! AWESOME!! I SO wish I lived close enough to have joined in on the festivities!! We are cheering you one and praying continually! Jenn I am SO in tears right now! Beautiful post. Trust me when I say from afar, that it doesn’t get much better than this … as we following along witnessing Abba Father take you from glory to glory! oh, wish that we lived closer! Love being on your journey with you – cannot wait to see pics and hear a court date:). Wow! Just amazing. Yes! God’s love pours out over and over and over. Amen! what an amazing day. i’m thinking of the phrase “when it rains it pours” b/c god is POURING down blessings on you! i feel blessed myself just to be watching it unfold from afar. Now those are some powerful words for Isaac’s Lifebook! AMEN! I am in tears after reading that. What great friends to give you a surprise party! And the great love the Lord has given you for Isaac is truly amazing! I just pray I have this kind of love for our adopted child when God reveals who he or she is. Do you still want him, she asks, well, He is my son! Beautiful!! Just Beautiful!! Praying that is doing well and you get to him fast!! How exciting and precious! What special words to hear from Almaz! So glad you had such a fun day! Not much better than that (until YOU get to hold your son and get to look into that little face yourself!). What a blessed day! And your shower was just precious! What a sweet group of friends! Almaz is the real deal…and she doesn’t say it unless she means it!! I LOVE what she says about your sweet Isaac!! Praise God for this little blessing and the life he will lead! hugs-  Just tracked the delivery of THE package…our returned referral packet that will begin our wait for our court date and it is… On Schedule: In transit On FedEx vehicle for delivery by 4:30pm PORTLAND, OR YAY! It will arrive BEFORE their office closes today—so I hope our “next steps” conference call can be scheduled quickly […] oh this post is filled with so much FUN STUFF!!!! love that baby book… it’s the one i’m planning on getting… love the shirts! how awesome are they?! they’re beautiful, julie! praise the LORD isaac’s birthmom is a believer!!!! how amazing!!! and such a great idea to make two albums exactly alike so you can show isaac what his birthmom saw… oh, i’ve got to write that down! and your referral packet is there! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! so many exciting things! Loved learning about Isaac’s birthmother. I cannot wait to see the album you put together. I am sure it will be beautiful and very easy to see the love you have for Isaac. I am so glad you like the album and that you already get to start filling it out. Looking forward to that day too 🙂 Of course I love Julie’s shirts she designed for you…fabulous! You know how Bonnie Hunt has her “feel good moment of the day?” This was like a feel good post of the day! Andrea – i love your posts!~ I love starting and ending my day with them:). I love them shirts, love the book, love your outings!~ Our God is amazing – how He has been with both you and Isaac’s birth mother, moving in both of you – AWE-INSPIRING!!! Those are precious gifts!!! I think it would be easy to tell you are expecting….probably shows on your face- like I am going to explode unless I share our news with anyone & everyone expression 🙂 Just sayin’! SSOOOOOO happy for you!!!!!! Can’t wait for more! Love all your excitement! SO FUN! I just posted Abby’s Flitterbugs dress, bow and Taggie!! LOVE THEM!!! Are you going to the Summit still?! Reading this post just made my heart happy, Andrea. The love you have for Isaac and his birth mother just oozes out of you. 🙂 I so enjoy keeping up with your “paper pregnancy” – would love to get together for lunch sometime soon! Talk about a day of surprises!!! How fun! Jumping back in the Word discussions…and instead of recapping from last Wednesday to this…I’m just starting back on this:). For those of you reading the One Year Bible with us through the chronological guide at http://oneyearbibleonline.com, there will just be crazy times where you get behind in reading. Instead of getting overwhelmed and putting your […] That sentence “obedience is far better than sacrifice” really struck a chord with me. God doesn’t just want us to go to church, to tithe, to read the Bible, unless our heart is in it. Otherwise its not going to do any good. Perfect timing for me since I just jumped back into the reading after getting SO behind after my surgery. I was reading fast, but I was hardly getting anything out of it. Thank you for your suggestion to jump back in and catch up on that later (like on our trip to Ethiopia) because now I am back to enjoying my time in the word. =) |
