Peace Of Mind
"You will keep in perfect peace the mind that is dependent on God, for it is trusting in Him"
-Isaiah 26:3
No news, no news. I am trying to update this weekly because I am aware that we have many people thinking and supporting us. Easter was actually more emotional than we anticipated it would be and now I have more appreciation for all adoptive families who are out there waiting for word. I kept thinking about if our other children we having Easter whereever they were- Ryan reminded me that they were probably getting to eat more candy then Molly and Blake because I wasn't there. :)
We have some amazing Christian friends that daily bring us encouragement and laughter. One said this week, "Not long from now you and Ryan will look back and see that you lost your car because you needed a bigger vehicle for all those kids sooner then you thought; you didn't sell your house quickly because you had time before your new job and you couldn't be homeless!"
Peace of mind is easy to talk about and read about but really, truly having it takes a lot more work & prayer. This is a crazy time for us with a lot going on, so peace of mind that His Timing is perfect is a big deal!

Hi, my name is Kelly and searching through different blog sites I came across yours. I just want to encourage you on your journey. We adopted a little boy from Rwanda in Jan. and to see that other believers will provide hope and a future to another 2 children out of the 136 that I saw there 4 & under brings me great joy. Stay focused on the outcome b/c it is so worth it! If your interested my blog is sniderfamilyadoption.blogspot.com
