Wow it has been a long busy day! I want to write this blog before sleep deprives me of any details. So please excuse me if I misspell a word or something.
First of all God has provided sponsor families for all 62 New Day Children. Yippee Jesus!!!! I am so excited about that!
I asked him this morning to please take care of all of the children by Friday; I did this for a specific reason. I will go into more about that tomorrow. But he took care of it in 1 day. Less than 24 hours!!!!
He is amazing.
Two more things he did today that just touched me in a mighty way. First of all I have been worried from day one that one of the older kids might have a hard time getting matched. Well today a friend emailed me and said give me the one you think no one will want. OH WOW! I almost cried! So that precious soul is taken care of.
Also I have gotten several emails today saying just match me up with whomever, well for some reason I just couldn't give Kevin to anyone. I kept holding on to him and he was the last one. I have been a little worried about who would be last child to be matched just because it reminded me of a bad scene in a Mean Girls movie...lol...told you I'm tired. Well I had believed God for all of these cuties to be taken care of and then when we got to the last one I had begun to panic a little. I just wanted them to all be taken care of TODAY. I was having to sit on my hands to keep from trying to "work it out on my own"...or mess it up on my own...lol. Anyway finally after 6 p.m. tonight Tanya emailed me and told me that she had just let Kevin's "forever family" know about Operation Giggle. So his Mama emailed me and let me know she wanted to be his Christmas family too...of course. God was saving that precious Kevin for his Mama and I was worried to death that he had forgotten the last New Day kid. God answered a big question for me with that final "God Moment" and I have big news...but you will have to wait until tomorrow for that news because I am going to bed!!!
(I already have the post written...just feel like I should wait till in the morning and one thing today has taught me is to wait when God says wait!)
Also for all of you detail people out there (I am one) today is exactly two months since I posted my first blog!
Praise God and Goodnight!!!
