Rejoicing in each step

We had a moment recently where we were excited about all the financial support that was coming in and simultaneously subdued because of the amount that was still left to raise. We looked at the generosity of all of you wonderful people and were encouraged, yet also hesitant to be too joyful as we knew there was so far to go. 

Fortunately, God in His patience, quickly and gently reminded us to JUST REJOICE in what He was up to and in what our friends and family are doing by so faithfully assisting us in this journey. So we apologize for our momentary lapse of perspective and have redoubled our rejoicing in what is happening - because the love and support we are receiving is overwhelming! 

As of 9a on December 17th we are barely $700 away from our big goal of $7800 that will go to our adoption agency. We are only a few hundred dollars from being introduced to birth moms via our agency. We are so much further along than we could have ever hoped at this point.

So we rejoice, with thankful hearts.

Are there things in your life that you need to just stop and rejoice in? Are you letting worries cloud what is worthy of praise? We encourage you to stop and rejoice, for surely there is much to rejoice in!

By His grace, for His glory,

Wayne
