In two weeks…
I will be back with stories from Haiti and lots of pictures.
In the meantime,
be blessed.
I'm so excited you stopped by! I pray your visit here will be encouraging. You will find books, and stories, and posts on infertility and adoption and faith.

Do you ever have moments of pure grace? I had one this evening when I stumbled upon something I had scratched into a notebook five years ago. It was like a bucket of water given to someone dying of thirst. ______________________________________________________________________ Judges 6:15 “But Lord,” Gideon replied, “how can I rescue Israel?

Can you tell what this is? Oh, yes. It’s that time in our household. Time to drag out receipts and the adding machine and my long-lost banking skills. Time for my dishes to set in my sink, unwashed. (But doesn’t this style of photo make them look… well, not quite as bad as they are?) time for…

Merry Christmas! May your holiday be filled with laughter and happy tears. May your gaze be drawn back, again and again, to our precious Savior and Redeemer- Jesus Christ. And may you always- every day of the year- seek Him.

Looking forward to hearing and seeing all about your trip!! Blessings on your travels and your ministry! 🙂
“We are blessed, and we can bless.” I know you will be both blessed yourselves and a blessing to others in Haiti. Looking forward to your returning posts. 🙂
