Thank you!

"You made the heavens and the Earth, the sea and all that is in them.

Your promises remain. 

You give justice to the weak, you care for the widow and orphan.

Forever Lord you reign. 

What joy. What joy for those whose hope is in the name of the Lord.

What peace. What peace for those whose confidence is Him alone.

Hallelujah. Forever we will sing. Hallelujah! Praises to our King."

- What Joy lyrics by Sarah Emerson

"The Lord sets the prisoners free; The Lord opens the eyes of the blind. The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down; the Lord loves the righteous. The Lord watches over the sojourners; he upholds the widow and the fatherless, but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin." - Psalm 146: 8-9

uphold - to give support to; to defend

The Lord loves adoption. The money we needed for this adoption was nothing to Him. It was huge in our minds. But so easy for Him to provide. Forever and forever we are thankful to those that have been faithful to the calling that He gave you to come alongside us financially. My heart overflows and pours forth from my eyes with tears of gratitude and awe and love for my Jesus, my Lord and my God who sees fit to give us the privilege of parenting through adoption. And my heart overflows and pours forth from my eyes with tears of gratitude for your choosing to be the hands and feet of Jesus in this way.

And let's not forget the beautiful prayers of you all who love and support us. Support us and help uphold us and our baby through the bending of knees, the fervent prayers that the Lord treasures on behalf of us and our little one. Uphold us through your thoughtful words, your time and talents, and your hugs of comfort. 

Thank you! We have only one to two thousand dollars remaining out of $35,000. And we still have one more fundraiser some sweet friends have set up!
