To recap in case you missed the last drama filled week; in
the midst of having to travel to our state capital twice to redo document
authentications, our van quite unexpectedly and with no warning met the end of
its useful life. With the
additions to our family these past few years we must have a large vehicle. It has to seat at least eight people and have
the cargo space to hold two wheelchairs and a walker. Since we won’t really know “Susy’s” exact needs
until she is home, it is possible that we might require a van that has the capacity to add an accessibility ramp to it in the near future. With us currently fundraising to pay for
the adoption, we obviously have very
meager funds available to purchase a replacement van.
Today we received a most extraordinary gift. It is an answer to prayer, above and beyond
anything we would have dared to dream. It
is a shining illustration of God’s love for our children, how HE has the details of the adoptions totally under control, and how He is faithful
to provide when we step out in faith.
This is our replacement van!
It was gifted to us by someone we have yet to even meet, on
the condition that God receive all the glory for it, and that they remain
anonymous. Please rejoice with us! We
are both humbled and in awe that our prayers were answered in such a lavish
way! This van should last us for many
years to come, and provide the dependable transportation we need, especially
with our children who have mobility needs.
Praise God! We were praying for you all this weekend, and it's so good to read that God answered your need so quickly. What an encouragement! Blessings to you all.

ReplyDeletePraise the name of the Lord! I read this aloud after Dw texted me to go look at your FB status! I was crying as the kids gathered around listening and looking at your new van!! Seriously!! GOD IS SO AMAZING!! We rejoice with you!! He is faithful to meet ALL of our needs!!! We have to find something to accommodate 2 chairs and Vernon's inability to get up in a high-stepped van. But He has the answer!! Rejoicing through tears with you!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteHow amazing is God's care for us??! Just today I had a friend say she doesn't know how anyone can afford to adopt and this shows how it's done- He has his hands on every part of the adoption journey. So happy for your family!
