Although my heart hurt... it was soothed quickly by the knowledge that we were following the Lord's will for our lives. Can't wait to hear how the Lord moves you and Scott!!!<BR/>HUGS,<BR/>-Nicole<BR/>www.bakerssweets.blogspot.comNicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15619252427094046804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3109143451120586356.post-72483583944781099182008-04-29T17:50:00.000-04:002008-04-29T17:50:00.000-04:00I knew it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOVE you!xoxooxox,B...I knew it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<BR/>LOVE you!<BR/>xoxooxox,<BR/>BBeckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01654670354400801155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3109143451120586356.post-73041064394753021602008-04-29T16:08:00.000-04:002008-04-29T16:08:00.000-04:00Hi O~ You are just wonderful....you already know w...Hi O~ You are just wonderful....you already know what I think of you :-) Thank you again for the "angel" work you did for us.

Thank you for your transparency in your faith in our Lord. Sometimes even the strongest of Christian women need someone a little big stronger to lead them and show them the way.<BR/><BR/>Big Hugs!The Byrd's Nesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06729548930434689842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3109143451120586356.post-19200063934964975792008-04-29T00:17:00.000-04:002008-04-29T00:17:00.000-04:00Ohilda,Oh my! I am so excited for you, and you ar...Ohilda,<BR/><BR/>Oh my! I am so excited for you, and you are so right . . . money is only money, we can't take it with us.<BR/><BR/>Just today I was recounting all that the Lord has done for us since we started this journey for Teddi. I had prayed for so many years to go to China, yet always wondering how God would make the way . . . About the same time we had Brogan, Bryan received a long overdue bonus from the military. By long overdue, I mean years overdue. . . BUT, it was overdue in our timing . . . "just in time" in God's timing. Still, I struggled with knowing that we needed to provide for the four we already had . . . braces, college, cars . . . and on, and on, and on. <BR/><BR/>It took one final sermon to remind me of something I already knew . . . that our treasure is in heaven and everything here on earth is just stuff. <BR/><BR/>Last Mother's Day our family stood in a huddle as our pastor prayed over us. I had admitted the money fears and that I was trusting God to make a way. Our pastor's final comment on our hopefullness to adopt, "It may make a difference in a soul being saved, and you CAN'T put a price on that!"<BR/><BR/>One month later I found Teddi! And as Mother's Day comes around again, I pray to be on my way to China to collect my treasure!<BR/><BR/>Oops, I think I just did a whole blog post in your comment box!! I love you girl, and I am so blessed that our paths have crossed.<BR/><BR/>If Liberia is the plan, HE will make the way . . . oh, how well you know! TRUST HIM, He is Able!<BR/><BR/>Thank you for sharing your heart, you truly do give God the glory, and you bless many of us in the process!<BR/><BR/>Blessings~<BR/><BR/>TinaWaitingfaithfullyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08204254697123829209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3109143451120586356.post-38019361186419328592008-04-28T23:09:00.000-04:002008-04-28T23:09:00.000-04:00What Awesomeness!!

You are crazy.....I love crazy people....speci...O. You are crazy.....I love crazy people....specially when they are crazy for the Lord and for children. Your hands are also full....of love, joy, mischief and cuteness galore, how could anyone resist wanting their hands so full? Finances? Well it may be a challenge but honey, you can't take money or luxeries with you when you leave this earth but if you teach your children in the ways of the Lord even if they leave it they will return and follow you to the Father.....what better luxuries are there? So all I have to say is "I AM JEALOUS!" sort of....I actually hate the thought of paperwork, waiting, worrying, and adjusting....but the thought of another precious love to hold, now that is worthy of the big green monster! :o) Can't wait to see what God has in store for you!2China4Aylahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13290831100237664264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3109143451120586356.post-72048080318848339272008-04-28T18:08:00.000-04:002008-04-28T18:08:00.000-04:00Ohilda, how beautiful!
