“THE PROCESS IS THE END. FOR IT IS THE PROCESS THAT IS GLORIFYING TO GOD.” --Oswald Chambers

"This life therefore, is not godliness but the process of becoming godly, not health but getting well, not being but becoming, not rest but exercise. We are not now what we shall be, but we are on the way. The process is not yet finished, but it is actively going on. This is not the goal, but it is the right road. At present, everything does not gleam and sparkle, but everything is being cleansed." --Martin Luther

Number 7!

Well if you have read the news letter you now know. We are expecting number 7 in August. Yes, we are excited. It was no accident (children are NEVER an accident) but it was a surprise. Does this change anything? NO not really. Back before the first of the year we had been experiencing some road blocks and hurdles. We did not know if it was the Lord slowing us down or the enemy trying to derail what God was doing. So we began praying and had others praying as well that we would know for sure if our Father was changing our time line to match His. On January 1 we found out that God changed our time line by blessing us with another child. God’s Word is clear that children are a blessing from Him and we believe that with all our heart. We see this blessing as gift for our obedience in following our Fathers call on our lives. And in that blessing He showed us clearly that He is in control and has a very specific plan. What a comfort to know that, to rest in that. So what is the time line now? We will be looking to go as a family in October (Lord willing).
