Even as the heavens...

"Even as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than yours; and my thoughts than your thoughts." Isaiah 55:9

We made it to the hospital with our BM, her twin sister and friend today. She went to the ER at the hospital where she will deliver. She was having a hard time explaining to them why she was there and I could tell they were about to send her back home. So, finding it hard to watch, I stepped in and proclaimed, "She's 2 weeks past due." Well, they almost threw her into a wheel chair and took her up to Labor & Delivery. However, she came back to the waiting area 15 minutes later to tell us they couldn't give her a full examination because she wasn't showing signs of labor. They told her she would have to go to a clinic. She is scheduled to go to a clinic this Friday, which, unfortunately we can't afford to wait for, AND we miss our boys and need to rescue Austin & Lynsey who have taken the sweetest care of them while we've been gone. So, unless our BM goes into labor tonight, we'll have to head back home and hopefully return when she goes into labor.

Please pray for our BM. We do not feel these 3 1/2 days have been wasted as we've been able to get to know her and learn about her life. She is such a sweet girl but lives in a world where there's constant stress and turmoil. Lord, I pray for peace in her life. I pray that, if she hasn't already, that she'll come to know You as her personal Lord and Savior. Use us Lord to bring her closer to You.

WE ARE SO BLESSED by Bill & Gloria Gaither/Greg Nelson
We are so blessed, by the gifts from Your hand
We just can't understand why You loved us so much.
We are so blessed, we just can't find a way or the words that can say
Thank You, Lord, for Your touch.

CHORUS:
When we're empty You fill us 'til we overflow
When we're hungry You feed us, and cause us to know.
We are so blessed, take what we have to bring,
Take it all, everything, Lord, we love you so much.

We are so blessed by the things You have done,
The victories we've won and what You've brought us through.
We are so blessed, take what we have to bring, Take it all everything,
Lord, we bring it to You.
