I knew it would happen

Each time my family takes a step of faith, I can feel myself getting stronger........

I knew it would happen
. I can feel my ability to trust God growing. It's like I can feel a pressure in my chest in response to our earthly situation. I then whisper through that pressure "God, help us. You have to come through.You said you'd come through. I trust you" I have to admit that the pressure in my chest grows heavier as the stakes seemingly get higher. But, each time my ability to chase that pressure away is stronger, better, quicker etc.

It's simple. Breathe in. Breathe out. Trust the One who created me and the One who knows His plans for my life. Trust that He has my best interest at heart and that He loves me. He's shown me time and time again that I am a precious daughter of His. He will do what He said He would and always Has. I just need to believe and keep breathing and praising and praying and chasing that pressure feeling away!

I knew it would happen. The day when fees are due and I'm still trusting God. It's surprising how easy it was today to chase the pressure away. I almost think it seems too big for me to even worry about. There was too much to be done to even worry for one minute. So, I breathed and praised and prayed (and worked and cleaned and did laundry.......) and somehow that pressure feeling fled in an instant. Fees are still due but I'm not feeling the pressure to do anything. God has to.

I knew it would happen
. The day God answered our prayers and we had the provision for this adoption. We're praying for the wave of resources He's promised. That day is coming our way!
