When God answers prayer in an astounding way!



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!

 Disclaimer: Our adorable little grandson on the left doesn't live with us.
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.
