NEW "M^" PICS, bittersweet news and a Lenten Devotion


We received new pictures of our sweet "M^" today!!!  We are so very excited!  Our social worker traveled to Ethiopia and while there went to visit "M^" at her orphanage.  We were able to send a care package over.  From the looks of some of the pics it looks like "M^" really enjoyed the stuff we sent especially the photo album. 


We are not able to show her face on our blog or social media yet.  When we pass court in Ethiopia we'll be able to use her picture.  Until then we'll have to leave the pink heart over her face.  What we can tell you is that she is a sweet, kind and a beautiful person inside and out!


It looks like she even did a coffee ceremony while our social worker was there.  We are so proud of her!  We absolutely can't wait until we get to bring her home.  We pray that is sooner than later.  That brings us to the bittersweet part of our post today.  We are so happy to hear about how she is doing and receive pictures.  However, we have growing and new concerns about her health.  We are very worried about some of the news we heard.  Please pray that we can get her home with us as soon as possible.  Please pray that her health will not worsen at all and we can get her the needed medical attention here in the US.  We want to get our daughter home!

"Lord to whom shall we go?" (John 6:68)

With all of this news today we have no choice to whom we go.  We have to go to God with our prayers, with our worries, with our lives.  We trust that God is looking over "M^".  She was God's beloved child before she was anyone else's.  We know that He holds her close when we can't be with her.
