I had a good friend of mine tell me once when she had a lot of things going on in her life and wasn't sure what the Lord was going to do, she said that, " she had her hand in lots of jars of peanut butter but just was waiting to see what the Lord would do with them". I would say right now we have our hand in lots of jars of Peanut Butter and we are excited to see what the Lord will do with them, but will also be glad when a few of them are gone.
It looks like the trial for the kidnapping is going to go on after all. We were hoping that the defense would interview the kids and try to settle out of court, for some reason God has not provided that opportunity, so even though it is not the way I would have like to have ended this, I know God has a purpose in ALL He does and this of course is no exception. Please be in prayer for Kenya and Elijah and also Mom and Dad as things are pretty busy and a week away from home will be hard to do.
We did find a lawyer to help fight the neglegence charge from CPS. We are supposed to have an over the phone "Administration Hearing on Sept. 8th. Please also keep that in your prayers.
Last but definantly not least, we are told that Annecy and Isaiah might be home by the fall. That is only a couple of months away! We are excited beyond words and hoping that things will start to slow down so we can take on 2 more kids. The Lord is good and He does all things in His perfect timing. We know He will never give a more than we can handle, so we are encouraged in that.
Church is going wonderful, we have had atleast one or two new people every week and the Lord is blessing out summer BBQ's, there is nothing better than hanging out in the sun, with good friend talking about what God is doing in our lives.
We are so blessed to be serving the Lord and even though we are busy we love being busy serving and loving on God's people.
