Adoption and Walking On Water

You are are probably wondering what these two things have to with each other. In Matthew 14:22-36 ²² Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd. ²³ After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. Later that night, he was there alone, ²⁴ and the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it. ²⁵ Shortly before dawn Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. ²⁶ When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear.²⁷ But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” ²⁸ “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”²⁹ “Come,” he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. ³⁰ But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” ³¹ Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?” ³² And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down. ³³ Then those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.” ³⁴ When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret. ³⁵ And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding country. People brought all their sick to him ³⁶ and begged him to let the sick just touch the edge of his cloak, and all who touched it were healed.Why do we doubt GOD. Why do we think that is so far removed from our daily life. Christians are so scared to commit to helping orphans or even adopting because it is scary. Well I have news for you Peter was scared but yet he steped out in faith. Jesus was right there to calm his fear. Why don't you step up and do what GOD is calling us all to do.
"Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves…defend the rights of the needy." (Proverbs 31:8,9)
"You are the helpers of the fatherless." (Psalm 10:14) He says in Isaiah 43:5-6 "Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children from the east and gather you from the west. I will say to the north, "Give them up!" and to the south, "Do not hold them back." Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth" 

Please consider stepping out in faith and do something for the fatherless. Adopt, donate, or pray just do something because every life matters.

Precious Prince

EVERY LIFE MATTERS

Today is a day of Blessings

Today Princess Melody moved to new commitments that means that her family sponsorship is done and that you can make donations straight to her new family. The McCracken family is amazing and GOD has used them in some pretty awesome ways. I know that she is going to be a blessing to them and they will be a blessing for her. Will you be in pray with our family that God will sustain her until her Mommy and Daddy can wrap their loving arms around her. I hope to have her FSP button on my page soon.

Now I would like to introduce you to our new Angel Tree Baby. Linden is a precious prince. Linden was born in 2010 same year as our Monkey Boy. Linden is described as “a very happy little guy”. You can just see the potential in his face. Linden has Down syndrome and hypothyroidism. He does not have a heart condition or any other medical conditions. His development is considered delayed. Please don't shy away from this little guy because he has medical issues. They can certainly be managed with proper care and love. All children want is to be loved. Do you have a place in your home for this little guy.  

Linden you have a place in my heart and this holiday season you will have a family even though we can't physically hold you we will hold you up in prayer. We love you Prince Linden. Linden you are fearfully and wonderfully made. I am so humbled at the fact that God has chosen us to warrior for this child.

Angel Tree 2012 starts November 1st and runs through

December 31st. This christmas our families goal is to raise 1,000 dollars for this little mans adoption grant. People have said that money has been the key factor in the reason they don't adopt please help me raise this money so that we can help Linden's find his forever family.

Name Change

I am changing the name of this blog because I think that all of these kids are Royaltly and we need to give them the royal treatmeant just a King david did to Mephibosheth in 2 Samuel chapter 9. King David wanted to do right by Johnathan which was Sauls son. David's servant Ziba was called and he told David that there was one living relitave of Saul. That mans name was Mephibosheth. Mephibosheth was crippled in both feet. David gave Saul's grandson all of of his grandfathers land. Then King David called Saul’s servant Ziba and said, “I have given Saul’s family and everything he owns to your master’s grandson, Mephibosheth. You will farm the land for Mephibosheth. Your sons and servants will do this for him. You will harvest the crops. Then your master’s grandson will have plenty of food to eat, but Mephibosheth will always be allowed to eat at my table.”

The Royal Life Of God's Special People

Rejocing( Miracle in our Midst)

I have recently reveled who our Angel Tree Princess was for this year. Her name is Melody she won my heart over with her adorable chubby little baby face. Melody reminded me so much of my little Monkey boy. Over the weekend my family moved into a new house and I woke up Monday morning feeling blessed beyond measure but then I found out that this Princess was on Reece's Rainbows My Family Found Me Page. If you ask the question what does this mean well here it is this means that this precious Princess is being adopted. Melody is blessed and highly favored. The fundraiser that I started will continue but it will go to her family sponsorship account that will go to help with her adoption.

So now we have chosen another child to be our Angel Tree Baby. I will not stop shouting for Princess Melody till she is safe at home with her family wherever they maybe. We love you Princess and pray for you and your family. May God Bless them and their journey.

HER SHE IS!!!!!!!!!!!!



Melody

 Well here she is our I would like to introduce you to our Angel Tree Princess for this Christmas. God placed this Princess on my heart sometime ago. When the Angel Tree sign up finally started I sent in my request to be her warrior and then I just stared at her picture. I knew she look familiar then it hit me she looks like our Monkey Boy. I know what you are saying how can you say that well if you look at their faces they just resemble each other. We love her this is going to be her second Christmas. I remember how much fun the boys second Christmas' was they just let loose and tore into their gifts. Well this year we are going to honor our Princess and by gifts for the heart babies at the Children's Hospital. Why the heart babies well Melody just recently had heart surgery to fix Congenital heart defect. My prayer for our Angel Tree Princess is that God would sustain her while she waits for her forever family and that where ever her forever family is that they would hear God's call on their lives to go bring her home. This Christmas though she will not know it she will have a family for Christmas. The boys always get new ornaments for Christmas so this year Princess Melody will have a ornament on our tree with all of our family ornaments. We will have a stocking for her and just celebrate her life. We love you so much Melody you are a Princess and I pray that someone in your temporary home shows you love.

Angel Tree officially starts Nov. 1 and runs through Dec. 31 our goal is to raise 1.000 dollars for her grant fund. We will be doing some fundraisers and we hope you will consider making a donation to this precious Princess.

A Cry For Help!!! for two Princess'

I am writing this in hopes that you will find in your heart to give. If you have read my blog I posted something titled Not A Coincidence. Well I have to tell you another part of this story. Alice 2h and Mara 2h are being adopted together they will be sisters forever. June of 2011 my family walked in a race called One Less 5k that our church done for there 5/5/5 warrior child Alice 2h. This is when we started to learn more about Reece's Rainbow and all they have done for kids across the globe.

We walked the race to raise money for Alice 2h adoption grant it was a huge success and thousands of dollars was added to her grant. Then in October of 2011 we got to be apart of Reece's Rainbows Angel Tree project for the first time and my husband an I prayed for which child to raise money for that is when GOD showed me Mara 2h.



We prayed for her daily and so did our boys. We spread the word and prayed that people would donate to her grant. We bought her ornament and it hung on our tree. Christmas of 2011 was this sweet Princess' first Christmas so we bought her a baby's first Christmas ornament that also hung on our tree with all of our family ornaments. I prayed everyday that our Angel Tree Princess would have a family. One day I was searching the website for Alice 2h because we also prayed for her everyday also. I finally found her she was listed under MY FAMILY FOUND ME!!!!!! OH the joy that we all had. We waited and waited to see who her new family would be. Christmas came and instead of stocking stuffers we donated money in honor of each of them to our Angel Tree Princess Mara 2h and continued to pray for her and for her to have a family. Then the day came I woke up on December 26, 2011 to all the messages and notification that our Angel Tree Princess was listed on MY FAMILY FOUND ME PAGE. Along with our family we shed tears of joy that our Princess would be saved and she would know the love of a mommy and daddy. Then a couple of weeks later after stocking the RR for updates on both Mara 2h and Alice 2h it was in front of my eyes nothing but a miracle. Mara 2h and Alice 2h were going to be sisters we were so overjoyed both us and our church family in De Queen. In June of 2011 we didn't know that the sweet Princess that we were walking for and our soon to be Angel Tree Princess would be sisters but they are. Now their family is working so hard to bring them home. They have had numerous fundraisers, auctions, yard sales and even cut back on all their expenses but they are 1.000 short of being fully funded. 1.000 dollars is all is it to much to ask for you to help this family out and donate to these two very adorable Princess' and help them get home to their new family. Mara 2h is in need of medical attention immediately and Alice has been in institution for several months the Groves family needs your help. The Groves family sponsorship button is on the right side of my blog and all donations are tax detectable.

Please pray and Donate to these two girls they need you. Pray that GOD will sustain them till they can come home. Please Pray for Mara pray that she will healthy to make it to the states for her treatment and that Alice will be protected from all of what the institution means for kids with special needs. Pray for protection for them both and that their caregivers will be loving toward them. Pray for their new family will have peace while apart of their family is on the other side of the world and that when they go to get them they have a safe journey with a smooth adoption process.
