Amazed yet Humbled

Can I just say that I'm amazed by all the good things that are happening in the Adoption world. Reading about families I follow finally being able to go get their families. A cousin who has waited years for a baby to come into their lives was blessed to receive a call on Monday that Eli was on the way. Friends who didn't know where the money was going to come from have had one door after another opened for them. It's amazing yet humbling. It does my heart well to see that though it may ache to hold my own little, God definitely has his own impeccable timing.

Listening to the words of Hosanna at the Hillsong United concert really brought that home last night:

I see the King of glory
Coming on the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes, the whole earth shakes
I see His love and mercy
Washing over all our sin
The people sing, the people sing

Hosanna, hosanna
Hosanna in the highest (x2)

I see a generation
Rising up to take the place
With selfless faith, with selfless faith
I see a near revival
Stirring as we pray and seek
We're on our knees, we're on our knees

Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like You have loved me
Break my heart for what breaks Yours
Everything I am for Your Kingdom's cause
As I walk from earth into eternity




- Jordan


“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. Is there anyone among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you then, although you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! " - Matthew 7:7-11
