I'M BACK!!!!

Sometimes, I let my human thinking distract me from God's promises. You know, ones like, "I will never leave you or forsake you",or maybe " we know all things work together for good to those who love the Lord and are called according to His purpose" or this one," do not be afraid or discouraged, the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."  Sometimes.......for like the last week.......I focus on the negatives, instead of the positives, and it takes me to a place I don't like to go.  But God, in all His faithfulness, always shows me His mercy and grace, and His promises, in some form or fashion, and brings me back to the place I'm suppose to be and the place I want to be.  Its pretty neat for us that even though we sometimes lose sight of God......He NEVER loses sight of us!
This morning I could hardly wait to get online and see if I had any news regarding Gabe.  I was just fixing to click on yahoo mail when I STOPPED.  See, I made a promise to myself and God along time back that before I got on the computer in the mornings, I would FIRST read my devotional and spend some time with Him. I sure wanted to see if I had anything concerning the new developments last week but instead......I kept my promise..........and God bein God........He kept His.  Everything I read pertained to me and my feelings for the past week. Each scripture, each promise, just for me.  And when I got through and did go to my e-mail to see if I had any news.........this is what was there........no news " to call home about", ..........just this little guy.......

Now, maybe this is one of those, "you had to be there" moments, but you see, we had gotten these pictures of Gabe a good while back, but not this one. This one just happened to somehow not make it in with the rest and our lady in country just happened to send it now. NOW! Do you see his little face? Do you see happy, content, ok, on his little face?? I do. I see just what God knew I needed to see. I have lots of pictures from our visit just last week, but I needed to see this picture.......this look on his face.......and I needed to see it this morning.

I don't know what the future holds, but thank goodness, I know Who holds it. Gods got this! I just need to be reminded sometimes!!

(yep, thats our little boy! but doesn't he look cute in yellow!)

We are waiting for news on some new documents that we had to throw together on Friday of last week. We got them in the mail and they should of reached their destination sometime this morning. So, maybe tomorrow we'll talk to someone. I know that I know, that I know that I know......Gods got this......yep, He's got it!
