I love how you have said so many of the things that have been on my heart and the way God seems to be able to speak to my wife more clearly than me. And trust me it is not just the women who get teary, nothing moves me more than to see people make a sacrifice like this, of their time, money and every part of their life, to reach out and bring an orphan into their home. This is the heart of God, to reach out to the helpless, the widow, the orphan.

My wife Lu, is I would say responsible for giving me a glimpse of God's heart while I was totally ignorant! Having read what you had to say about Julie was like reading about Lu. I don't do 'onlineness' much but I just felt compelled to comment. It's really good to hear a guy publicly appreciate his wife (for once). My Missus really taps into God's heart also, in a way I never had experienced before. Consequently leading me into a deeper relationship with God, and like you every good thing I have in my life basically can be traced back to her. God must love me...<br />I'm so pleased for you all, and especially the little guy you've just welcomed into your family. Having read much of this blog, it's obvious God handpicked for him a family who would love him more than anyone else could have.The Mr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01145267240645860988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7297657180254499319.post-15673643799657030302010-09-20T19:46:24.523-04:002010-09-20T19:46:24.523-04:00Rob, I just had to tell you how much I LOVE your w...Rob, I just had to tell you how much I LOVE your writing!!

These ladies are unsung heroes.<br />Signs, miracles, and wonders are evidence of God's presence and power in His family's lives. Adoption reveals all these. <br />Worship in elemetary terms is child-like faith...Trust and obey.<br />I honor your steadfastness and rejoice in persevereness to enlarging your family and your heart!<br />Keep going!!<br /><br />Mark MickschlHansinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06580605628707570826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7297657180254499319.post-31782064916464979032010-09-20T11:33:48.841-04:002010-09-20T11:33:48.841-04:00You were right-- a wonderful post.
