I forgot to update our blog-- life has moved so fast. A week ago today we received word we would be leaving this Friday. It has been a WaVe of emotions. WE hit a slight(huge) speed bump when we found out our airfare was considerably more.. on top of ... not realizing we owed $5440 in travel expenses for "in China " stuff. Top that off with the $5000 orphange donation.. we were ready to throw in the towel. Then God told us different. In a matter of days- friends and family came to our side. Luke 5: We were exhausted- and we were catching nothing. Tired. Worn out. And then He told us to go back out... "again"- only this time- go in deeper. Over our heads. On the ground of His word- we lowered the nets. 3 days 'til we board that plane for China... we do believe in miracles ! Our Lord has ALWAYS provided!!!! At Thanksgiving... we have soo much to be thankful for!
In 6 days, Little Lil will be with us! Sad, Scared, Fragile... But the good Lord is with us. We have seen the power and miracles of God-- we are forever changed.
As soon as we get Lil- I will be able to post pictures . For her safety.. they have required us to take them off her until we get her. Get ready my friends... she is awfully cute !!
We will take many prayers Friday-into Sunday on our long journey to China! We are ready!!
Love you's!!
