I Have Seen...

In the midst of a lot of difficult and heart-breaking situations, God is still who He says He is. No matter what I see or experience, His character is still the same. I know its true because I have seen...

Unconditional love in a mother's arms.

Support from my husband. 

 

Peace in these waters.

 Joy in his smile.

Hospitality of new friends making brunch for us. 

Mystery in the unknown.

Hope for the children who will be adopted. 

Light piercing the darkness.  

Beauty in the views. 

Majesty in the mountains.  

Glory in the skies. 

Worship with other believers.  

Care from those we love. 

 Patience as we learn.

Creativity in nature.

Thanksgiving as they prayed before breakfast.

Sincerity in her saying her work is for Jesus.

Diligence as they worked for 2 long days crafting 4 pieces of furniture. 

 Provision as this sweet girl ate her peanut butter sandwich.

Innocence in her eyes.

Tenderness in these moments. 

Love from a stranger.  

Kindness from a man we met one time driving 45 minutes one way to take us to a Bible study.

Sacrifice from a couple who drove a long ways to come and spend time with us because we don't have transportation.

Perfect timing from a woman who responded to a request on Facebook just in time to pick us up for Church. AND making pizza for us. They also invited us to a Bible study & dinner this week.

Community in the group we met on Wednesday night; eating, singing & praying together.

Generosity from a man who took us out for dinner and ice cream and spent a total of almost 5 hours with us because traffic was so bad and was completely patient through it all.

Thank you God for the ways you have shown Yourself to us! 

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. 
-Hebrews 13:8
