Ask and you shall recieve....

I'm kind of cheating and using an email I sent to two very incredible women that blessed us by putting together a video of Ruthfaelle and Mackenson put to the song of "While I'm waiting" They blessed us in a way that was so overwhelming...I tried to post the video on here but couldn't.

Hey, I just had to tell you two just exactly what you have been a part of. Today as I was walking to get my lunch I was talking to Jesus and thanking him for the things he has shown me with this adoption this past week or so. I have been really needy lately with him about this and asked for "more". I knew when I asked that He understood although a part of me felt embarrassed for it....I accepted that what he had done earlier for me was amazing and that I could patiently wait.
Well, Denny and I were sitting and talking about a new job he is taking. It is a bit scary and the kids are always at the forefront of all of our decisions. We have been talking for days about if he should make this change.
I was going online to check my email and saw the post and of course it peaked my interest and I went to facebook, which normally during a deep conversation I wouldn't do :) but God had it planned just right...I stopped him and thought we were going to watch a video with not just us but other adoption families..as it went on we both were just blown away. I was crying so hard I could hardly see...haha..all I could think was "I asked for more and I got it!" God used the two of your hearts in such a huge, huge way... I haven't stopped crying...good crying though. I just had to tell you the "whole story" I love you both with all my heart and honestly this is probably one of the most amazing thing that has been done for us through this process. You blessed us beyond measure...

Another sister and dear friend, Becky, said this "remember He is also waiting for us to return home someday so He knows how you feel" I thought that was just the best perspective I've ever heard...what a cool thought.

We are surrounded by a crowd of God's people that speak truth and love into our lives on a daily basis. I am so overwhelmed by the show of God's love in our lives. The prayers that go up on the behalf of our adoption is crazy amazing to me. The things that God does behind the scenes on their behalf we will never know.

Thank you Jesus for being not only the best friend a girl could ever have, but my Savior, redeemer...help and my strength. I love you so much....thank you for loving me the way you do...
