News We've All Been Waiting For!


" . . . . The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.”
Job 1:21 
  
Today, the Lord revealed to us what His will was for our embryo transfer.  God, in His infinite wisdom, perfect knowledge and holy will, chose for five tiny little souls to be ushered into eternity.  While our hearts are saddened that things didn't go the way that we wanted, we trust the will of our sovereign heavenly Father, for our eyes see dimly this side of heaven.  

We do not mourn as those who have no hope!  We look forward to a great day when the veil will be lifted from our eyes and we will always be with our Lord and Savior and our loved ones who have gone "to sleep" before us!

"For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord,[a] that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.  Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord."
I Thessalonians 4:14-18

Praying for your family. Throughout my embryo adoption process I really clung to the promise of God's perfect timing. I realized the other day that we are practically neighbors - I live in Griffin.
