By Faith Not By Sight

We are a family that loves God and loves each other. Our family is built through, and so blessed by adoption. As a family we are lead to pray for the children who remain orphans with no family to call their own, no mom and dad to take care of them. When one face began to repeatedly appear to us, and many things kept connecting us to one little boy, we began to look closer at this one child in an orphanage in China. We began to listen to our hearts and pray harder. Fast forward to a year later. Our Pastor is teaching on circle prayers. Calling us to move to a higher level in our prayer life and faith. Bold prayers, "circle prayers", prayers that call us to step out in faith, without giving up. Pressing in to the heart of God. So circle prayers are what we are praying, for God to lead us and provide a way for us to bring this little boy home.

You Over came

Well Frankie, if your mom could stop crying long enough to type I would like to leave you a message. On August 10th 2003 a great miracle happened. You , my beautiful son were born. Today, we'll never forget, God blessed us with another miracle. With one week to travel to bring you home, God provided the remainder of the finances needed in a very large grant from "A Child Waits". God heard you. When you said you wanted a family, and we said we wanted you to be our child. He heard, and they helped us. This is such a huge miracle! You see there are so many people that love you and care about you with out even having been blessed to meet you yet. You are precious and so wonderful. Through this there have been so many people praying for you, caring about you, and working so hard to make this happen. Never forget how blessed we are. Never forget how faithful God is, and how much He loves you. Never forget to give back and help others when ever given the opportunity to. I am in awe today, of God, and of so many wonderful people that have so unselfishly given and worked hard to help us bring you home. This has been a very long year....with a lot of work...and a lot of lessons. In a week your brother and I will board a plane to travel very far. Have I mentioned I don't like to fly. (I know I have to everyone around me....often). We are coming to bring you home!!!! That is a very good thing!! I love you!!!
