I read some of the amazing posts of encouragement you've left on other blogs as well as your incredible posts on this blog and I feel compelled to thank you. Thank you for being a light in a dark world and for bringing hope and encouragement to those hurting. There are so many hurting and scared because of the wait to adopt from China and I love the verses you've brought to the table to remind us of God's love for us.<BR/><BR/>I can't wait to spend some time going back and reading your insightful posts.

Great post! <BR/><BR/>I am getting ready to post something on "Circumstance vs. Relationship" - which talks about the importance of focusing on our relationship with God - rather than our circumstances. And, most importantly, entrusting our circumstances to God - which is really hard to do when there is so much pain and hurt. It's amazing how differently we see things - not just in our own life - but the life of others - when our focus is on God.<BR/><BR/>Blessings to you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636139298576673779.post-45937460424013570432007-10-09T09:25:00.000-04:002007-10-09T09:25:00.000-04:00Hi Sue.

And reading Sacred Marriage...it is also addressed there...that we are all walking wounded, even knowing Christ, we still carry our hurts and wounds that cause us to, at times, lash out. The difference is that we come crawling back to our Father. <BR/><BR/>Good stuff this morning, Sue.

Sometimes the words have gripped me so deeply that I am also moved to tears. <BR/><BR/> Oh that God would use our lives to apply Him to those God size holes that we meet everyday. That people would let us minister to them with Him. Oh that the wounded in spirit would find their Healer and Comforter.<BR/><BR/> blessings;<BR/>Kimmie<BR/>mama to 6<BR/>one homemade and 5 adoptedKimmiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04462108880167593207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636139298576673779.post-25841966069446411922007-10-09T04:42:00.000-04:002007-10-09T04:42:00.000-04:00Heather,So glad you stopped by!SueHeather,<BR/>So glad you stopped by!<BR/>SuePraise and Coffeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18273673325959351521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636139298576673779.post-73790491674370253452007-10-09T04:41:00.000-04:002007-10-09T04:41:00.000-04:00oops...did it again, hit that button to soon!happy...oops...did it again, hit that button to soon!<BR/><BR/>happygeek,<BR/>You go ahead and use anything that you want.

My mom was so incredibly excited and brought it so our daughter waiting for Mei Mei would get more acquainted with what was coming for our family. I got to the part of the book you quoted and began to sobbbbb! But precious daughter, she said, "Keep reading Mommy, we'll never get to the good part if you stop there." How true. <BR/><BR/>Love your site, Praise God for your insightful commentary.
