The Lord is near!

Today was a BIG day for me. I made the call I had been dreading for a while. I have been praying, being anxious( tisk tisk) and praying some more over this call. To be honest it had me shaking in my boots so many times that I did not make it. I have just waited and held my breath...until today!

Who was this call to and why was I letting it have this affect on me? It was to our agency, which normally does not leave me a ball of nerves. However the questions I would ask today, the request I would make , depending on her response *could* have a major impact on the direction of our adoption.

Up until this point I have laid request after request at the Lord's feet ( a pretty good place don't ya say?) but what perplexed me was at what point do I need to put these requests to action? Many times I have asked God "Show me! Speak to me!" Many times He has answered. So much so that that I am in disbelief over it! Go figure that one out.

One thing God has made very clear HE IS WITH US! This journey thus far has been amazing, it's ups and downs and I am writting it ALL down, each "finger print of God" moment and one day I will be able to look back and see how this road lead us to our Selah.

Today, will be a day that is written down. I have not only laid it at God's feet but I put my feet to action and asked those very important questions that could very well change our lives. The response.....POSITIVE! I can BREATH knowing this is in GOD'S HANDS! Holding dearly onto these very precious verses:

Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near.
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:5-7


Please continue to keep us in your prayers. As we continue on this journey I can take confidence in knowing that GOD knows WHO our Selah is and WHEN it will all come together. I can put my confidence in HIM as His peace guides us as we lay all things at his feet through prayer. So thankful that His will, will be done!
