A Poem for our 18th month waiting for Sarah

Promises

I heard the voice of Jesus say
My child, you must not cry,
For I in my own wisdom
Know the reason why.

Though years have come and gone
Since happiness you've known,
I will restore the wasted years:
You see, you're still my own.

Thank you, God, for promises
Recorded in your Word,
That hope, once lost, can be regained
By trusting in the Lord.

--Shirley Collins

That's beautiful Julie! Thanks for sharing. I hope you guys are doing okay! I saw that our local hobby shop was putting out Christmas decorations. Made me a little sad but then I realized, Christmas will here before we know it...maybe by then we will at least have our referrals in hand!
