The Last Day
Here are two photos of Anchise taken on her last day at the orphanage. I have had them for a while, but finally feel at peace enough to post them. Her sweet, beautiful smile still melts my heart. We will love her forever. Please take a moment today to pray for her.
Oh Stephanie. She's such a beautiful doll, and a beautiful testimony to God's sustaining power in your lives. May God continue to be your portion, and I'm so thankful that you're sharing your journey.
Faith is BELIEVING the Word of God and acting on it no matter how I feel, believing that God will bring a good result.
Faith is not a belief that everything will turn out to please us; rather it is the confidence that no matter how things turn out, God will somehow use the events in our days for His glory and for our good.
Faith is deliberate confidence in the character of God whose ways you may not understand at the time.
Faith is being willing to trust God - turning your hopes and problems over to Him and trusting in His wisdom - and knowing that somehow everything will turn out for the best. No matter how difficult or dark things become, there is always a light.
Faith is a living, daring confidence in God's grace, so sure and certain that a man could stake his life on it a thousand times.
Faith is a reasoning trust, a trust which reckons thoughtfully and confidently upon the trustworthiness of God.
Faith is not belief without proof, but trust without reservation.

She is precious and you are such a strong family for dealing with this with such grace. I know she'll be always touched by your family.

My heart is broken for you. It's so hard to make sense of things like this that happen in Haiti.
It's hard to understand how to pray to God at these times. I will pray for your faith and your heart. And, of course, for your sweet baby girl.
God bless you and may God continue to bring you peace.
Oh my she is precious. I am so sorry. Your heart must ache looking at these.
