Encouragement

I know that some of you reading this are going through the adoption process right now. 

Some of you reading this probably stumbled across this blog through Reece's Rainbow because you want to adopt and are saying "one day" while in the mean time you are reading the stories of others who are going through the process to see if you can take that leap of faith. 

Others of you are reading this to follow our journey.

Whatever reason you are here, I wanted to share something to encourage those who put your faith and trust in Christ.  We have had a few weeks that have tested us and through it all we continue to see the Lord's provision and His hand and know that He is in control of everything.  He is so good!

We have replayed this throughout the week.  The God of angel armies is always by our side!  What do we have to fear?
"Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world." - 1 John 4:4
The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. -Psalm 46:7 
"David proceeded with a longer stride, a larger embrace since the God-of-the-Angel-Armies was with him." -2 Samuel 5:10
"And David became greater and greater, for the Lord, the God of hosts, was with him." -2 Samuel 5:10 ESV 
"God is our refuge and strength,
         A very present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change
         And though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea;
Though its waters roar and foam,
         Though the mountains quake at its swelling pride" 
Psalm 46:1-3
