Feeling Thankful on Thursday!



I'm feeling like our dear Lord is involved in so many more things in our life than I realize. I feel incredible gratitude toward Him. So many pieces of the puzzles are fitting together. So many thing are happening that are way beyond me. I am in awe of Him.

The other day our air conditioner shut down- it is electronic and it said to call a technician. Okay, we can do that except it was Friday night. We put a call in on Saturday morning and they came out to repair it. As it turns out the landscapers had unplugged something and the A/C reset wrong. A few minor adjustments and he was done! While he was downstairs he noticed a possible gas leak- sure enough he was right and he fixed it for free! Thank you Jesus for a missed disaster!

I often wonder how could we be adopting two lovely new daughters at our age? It is a miracle only He could have engineered! How could we be traveling to China at the perfect time. (I wanted to travel earlier, but this is so obviously his doing)! I am mourning that I will not see my BFF in China, that Sarah will not meet up with the girl from her orphanage and that we will not get to meet the incredible families that are their NOW! Hubby has made it clear that in his opinion this is God's timing. He had projects to wrap up at work, a necessary bonus for the orphanage fee for two lovely new daughters and airlines tickets where we finally get to sit together! Yes, this is HIS doing- and for that I am so grateful!

I feel so very blessed and down on my knees thankful to Him, to our Heavenly Father! In just 6 days we will be on a plane to China! The girls, that were only a dream will become reality! They will be our Emma Joy and Ella Mei!

Lord - thank YOU!
