September 05

Such a cutey!

By September, we had been informed that Family Court was in the process and that the DNA had been done on the mother to verify the birthright. We were anxious to see our little rose! As soon as a DNA match was verified, then we were planning to head to Guatemala! "You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in You." Isaiah 26:3

At the Foot of the Cross By Marcia Krugh-Leaser

Fearing the battle was over and I'd already lost the war,
I was tired of trying and failing. I just couldn't fight anymore.
So, dragging my battle-scarred body, I crawled to the foot of the cross.
And I sobbed. 'Oh please, Father forgive me. But I tried...I tried.. and still lost.'
Then the air grew silent around me. I heard his voice just as clear as the dawn:
'Oh, My child, though you are tired and weary, you can't stop, you have to go on.'
At the foot of the Cross , where I met Him, At the foot of the Cross, where He died,
I felt love, as I knelt in His presence . I felt hope, as I looked in His eyes.
Then He gathered me lovingly to Him, as around us God's light clearly shone. And together we walked though my lifetime to heal every wound I had known.
I found bits of my dreams, long forgotten , and pieces of my life on the floor.
But I watched as He tenderly blessed them, and my life was worth living once more.
I knew then why I had been losing. I knew why I had not grown.
At the foot of the Cross came the answer: I'd been fighting the battle alone .
At the foot of the Cross, where I met Him, At the foot of the Cross, where He died,
Then I knew I could face any challenge together--just my Lord and I.

Poem

Christians, by Maya Angelou

When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'."
I'm whispering "I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven."
When I say... "I am a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.
When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.
When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.
When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible but, God believes I am worth it.
When I say... "I am a Christian" I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.
When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Kisses in the Wind

I hold you in my heart and touch you in my dreams,
You are here each day with me, at least that's how it seems.
I know you wonder where we are... what's taking us so long,
But remember child, I love you so and God will keep you strong.
Now go outside and feel the breeze and let it touch your skin...
Because tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.
May God hold you in His hand until I can be with you.
I promise you, my darling, I'm doing all that I can do.
Very soon, you'll have a family for real, not just pretend.
But for tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.
May God wrap you in His arms and hold you very tight.
And let the angels bring the kisses that I send to you each night.
