We want to send a HUGE thank you for all the hard work and time invested to sell tickets to Julie Dotson, Lisa McCarthy, Haley Haworth, Janet Wickenhouser, and Carol Lombard. Each of these friends sold tickets in their home state and mailed the proceeds and tickets to us to be entered into the drawing. You guys were truly the hands and feet of Jesus! Thank you!!
We want to thank EVERYONE that bought raffle tickets to help us get sweet Sophie home. Because of all of the generosity and kindness shown to us we are getting closer and closer to finally being in the air to go get our girl!

Dear Chris and Leslie...
ReplyDeleteI was reminded of God's faithfulness yesterday when I was standing in the lobby at church and in RUNS a sweet lil boy named Jack...running, jumping, laughing with his friend! {And grama was running in right after him trying to catch him!} God is Faithful! I look at His faithfulness in Jack's life and am reminded to encourage you that HE was Faithful before...He will be Faithful again with lil miss Claire! {I know He already is being Faithful with her lil life!} I Love reading your blog and am encouraged to believe God's Faithfulness in my own life. I GREATLY admire how you have said YES to saving lives...wow, really in awe! God is using you in ways you cannot even see. So, even when it hurts, even when it's hard even when it all just falls apart...RUN to Him...He is Healer, He is Way-Maker...and He is saying WELL DONE on your obedience! I pray you feel His presence very near to you today and that you are lifted up to His presence to see from His perspective the GREAT story He has written on your lives. Be blessed today and know you are thought of and loved!
Isaiah 26:3-4
New Living Translation (NLT)
You will keep in perfect peace
all who trust in you,
all whose thoughts are fixed on you!
Trust in the Lord always,
for the Lord God is the eternal Rock.
love and prayers,
Amy Hayward
