I can't believe how long it has been since I actually wrote a blog. I don't think I have had time to just sit down and think lately. My life has changed so much in the last year. Gerardo and I have had our ups and downs, and of course some really scary times too. When my husband had his stroke last December I was unsure what was next. Our God has been so faithful to us and we have stood strong on His promises. I must confess though that there have been moments that I have felt a bit like I can't find my footing. I am so thankful for a God who is strong and unmoved by the ever changing times and drama of my life. Our life looks so different now that it did six months ago. The Lord had entrusted us with more that I ever thought we could handle at one time. We have to start each day reminding ourselves that we are not in charge and that His plans are better than ours. I usually have no idea what a day will bring since everyday is different. We have a rough schedule and everything else is filled in with phone calls, paperwork, meetings, visits and a whole lot of drama. This has been a good time for us as we have nothing but the Lord to trust in. Our faith has been shaken and challenged yet grown so much stronger than before. We love these children that He has placed in our care, we have no idea how long they will be here for but as long as they are we will love them and do the best we can. To Him all the glory and honor, not our will but His.

Pray for you often.
As long as you remember to serve joyfully and be thankful in all things, He will provide the strength you need and more.
Wondering what will come of the situation and praying God's will be done.
He is in control!
