It's Linda again...

Big God, Little Me.

This past week I have been in awe of how BIG my God is. Things that have developed and happened this week were a direct result of things God spun into the divine plan many years ago. I am speechless when I see God's hand in events from recent occurences, but when I can "connect the dots" from 50 years, I fall to my knees in worship and total adoration.
Ramon was able to meet his new dad this week and get re-aquainted with his new mom and sister. Words could never describe this moment except to say that I could feel the hush of angels wings.
Monday, Oct. 22, I have an extremely important meeting regarding a sibling group of 3 girls and I am asking for your prayers. BIG GOD, little me.
My most heart-wrenching moment this week was when an 18 year old girl came to me and asked me if I could find a mom and dad for her. She desperately wanted to be adopted. Her pleading eyes and sincere heart just broke me. So, for all of you who read this, please help me pray for these kids. I know that an "official" adoption is not possible... but maybe an "unofficial" adoption of the heart could work for teens who have graduated from High School and would like to study (work in the US with families). At what age are you too old to be loved and part of a family? Maybe 120 years old, I don't know.
Supplies for the "BEDS for BOYS" project were officially ordered and scheduled to arrive in time for Hart Baptist Church to work with. Twelve people from Hart, Michigan coming down from Oct 26th- Nov. 3rd. Their goal is to build 32 STURDY beds for the new boys casa and 8 homework tables. Also, there are numerous electrical and automotive projects as well. Please pray for this work team to be a blessing and to be blessed.
I love you all,
Linda

Linda,
I know someone who has visited LoV and is specifically interested in helping older teens who wish to come to the U.S. for work/study. I'm sure I could round up another 10 sponsor families from my current and former churches. We just need someone to coordinate. I trust that will be you very soon!
We continue to pray for the sale of your home & business.
