Adoption

Home Study: Nearly complete...

Pray that we get it this week so we can get it to our adoption agency Holt, and that we have the 3,000 easily to send our I 800 A form to the US government! I think we actually have to pay a Currier to have it delivered?  
Crazy,
Little update

Hard Day!

Today was one of those days that you question life and death, the kind of day that you bury your Grandfather. 

Where did he go? How long did he have Alzheimer's?  How can i better take care of my family? 
Do i see them enough, do i tell them how much they mean to me enough, do i  do all i can?  Where can i find comfort...

My comfort comes from God, for He sent His son to die on the cross for me..for you.. and for all... so that we could have a hope that when we do die that we have the opportunity for Heaven.. all you have to do is believe....not just Heaven..but an escape from eternal nothingness..
I must say he lived like he knew Jesus...as if he knew he was gonna see Him some day.  He was filled with love.
I am so thankful to be loved and so thankful to have been loved by him. 
I have the promise that I will see My Pop some day again.
Papa did not have much money but he was a RICH man! He lived that way and he died that way. 
I want to be the kind of mom/wife/cousin/niece/friend who loves...who lives in peace or harmony, who is always willing to help. 
PaPa, Melvin Leroy Carter!

Word Monday

Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; ensure justice for those being crushed. Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless, and see that they get justice.
Proverbs 31:8-9

Who do you know that is being crushed?
How can you speak up for the poor and helpless?


Food for thought.

Word Monday

Learn to do good. Seek justice. Help the oppressed. Defend the cause of orphans. Fight for the rights of widows.
Isaiah 1:17

Yes, we must learn, doing good was not born in us.
