Wild Wednesday

OH DEAR FRIENDS IT IS A WILD ONE FOR SURE.... JUST LOOK AND SEE WHAT GOD HAS DONE!!

Samantha is free!!

Another Plev*n Mulligan Stew babe has passed through the gates forever!!

Praise God!! Praise God!!



.... And look at Lyla....

For two weeks she has had her Mama and Papa visit her and LOOK AT HER!!  She is holding her head up.  She is transforming right before our very eyes.  Love Wins.  Every Time!



And get this...

WE SCREAMED AND YELLED FOR BERNADETTE.  HER CHANCES OF BEING ADOPTED WERE SLIM TO NONE.  SHE WAS AGING OUT AND GOING TO BE SENT AWAY FOREVER.....




BUT PRAISE GOD PRAISE GOD!!

These two babes are ORPHANS NO MORE.. The judge said YES.

Bernadette (Jessica Dorothy) and Mason (Caleb Elijah).... You are soon on your way home!!


Bernadette's smile says it all.  This is why we keep on keeping on people... so treasures like these are found!

(The Rogers are STILL SHORT on funds.  Please CLICK HERE if you can help)

BUT THAT IS NOT ALL...

TEARS ARE FLOWING FREELY HERE PEOPLE...

REMEMBER LAUREL?



SHE MET HER FAMILY!!



ISN'T SHE BEAUTIFUL...WHAT MORE CAN I SAY!! OH LAUREL... I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!

Older children have to agree that they want to be adopted.

HERE IS LAUREL SIGNING THAT SHE WANTS A FAMILY!!!



When you guys hear her story... what she has come through... You are going to weep!!  You are going to be blown away by God's goodness.  You are going to want to keep on doing orphan ministry because it is worth it!!!


This picture just plain makes me a puddle of tears on the floor!!

God is so good!!

And not only that... but TYLER met his family too.



AND HE TOO HAS SAID YES!!


YES TO HOME.  YES TO PARENTS. YES TO A NEW LIFE!!

BUT I'M NOT EVEN DONE BECAUSE GUESS WHO SHOWED UP ON THE MY FAMILY FOUND ME PAGE????

THEY ARE GOING TO BE BROTHERS...

  

Wait till you hear this story!!!

I can't stop the tears.

I can't tell you how grieved I have been this past week over these two boys.

BUT GOD!!

And Faithful Families!!

When we think that we just can't give anymore. When we become so discouraged because the mountains seem too high to climb....

GOD BLESSES US WITH REMINDERS OF WHY WE ARE DOING WHAT WE ARE DOING.

All special needs kids.  All found.

To God be the Glory!!


MY CUP OVERFLOWS!!


Let us NOT become weary in doing good because at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up!!!
Galatians 6:9

  2. How my heart needed this post, Julia. They are worth every prayer and every post and all the crazy screaming we do. They matter and Jesus loves them so much! I'm so blessed by these families' obedience to answer God's call.

  6. Oh my! I thought this post couldn't become anymore emotional until I got to the bottom and found that little Everett has a family! AND he is staying with his buddy, pal and now brother!!!! Everett has had my heart since I first laid eyes on him. I knew we couldn't adopt him; still working on getting our 2 girls adopted but I shared and shared his/their stories, blogs and prayed so very hard that someone would recognize him/them as their son(s). There are 8 less orphans on that mountain! What a wonderful sight! Praise Jesus! Gotta go get me some kleenex!

  10. So many happy endings, so many!!! Thank you for sharing. Laurel is so much prettier than the picture that was circulated of her. It reminded me of your post about how pictures can be deceiving. The money I contributed to these children and families is some of the best money ever spent. So happy to see this today and I'm dying to know more about Olson and Everett's family. Please share details when you can!

  23. Well, I guess I should have come to your blog first. I have been stalking Laurel's family's blog...just looking for a picture. So how do you get all of these pictures???? They are all wonderful and it is always nice to hear all of the good news, instead of the news that gets us down sometimes. Thanks for sharing.
