When we face challenges... when we are tired and frail... when our doubt is bigger than our faith... WHEN FAITH AND FEAR COLLIDE... Where does your strength come from?
I would never have fathomed that God would take me here... this place where I am right now. I believe with every cell in my body that God has me exactly where I am supposed to be. When I truly trust in His plan, that is when I experience His wonder.
I'm so humbled and excited to announce the coming of my new daughter!
She's a lovely 11 year old girl living in Fujian Province, China. Her name is Xi Yao (pronounced see-yow). Her name means "Hope" in Chinese.
We will name her Briella XiYao. Briella means "God is my strength".
We just received final approval from China, and Lidia and I will be traveling in June to pick her up. We can't wait !!
Here she is...
Psalm 121 ~ "I lift my eyes up to the hills. Where does my strength come from. My strength comes from the Lord, maker of heaven and earth."
God is my strength...
