shhh...

So, I have a little secret...but I really wanna to share it.

You see, here is the dilema...

The Word of God tells me that I shouldn't share the secret, or shouldn't make it obvious, because that might be kindof like tooting my own horn or trying to puff myself up. But...I really don't see it like that at all...I really just want to share the secret with you to tell you how AMAZING and COOL and TOTALLY FAITHFUL my God is. You see my secret is showing us these incredible results, these incredible blessings, and this ever faithful discernment. It opens our hearts and our minds to Christ. When we first got word of the secret, we didn't have any preconceived notions. We didn't really expect much from it. We just did it because we both felt called to...plain and simple...we heard the call, so we decided to give it a try and to obey the call.

And...OUR GOD IS EVER FAITHFUL. HE IS AMAZING. HE SPEAKS TO US and GIVES US HOPE and UNDERSTANDING and CONNECTION.

You see our little secret happens every Tuesday. We keep each other accountable to it. We remind each other of our secret. AND...We have seen super amazing things happen each and every time we have done it.

• Things like our little girl in Africa being moved to a new orphanage.
• Things like hearing word that the adoption ban is to be lifted there.
• Things like having a final home study meeting and it going so smoothly that we both couldn't help but give all glory to God above.
• Things like preaching at a college worship service.
• And things like having a conversation about Christ in the hallways of my office with almost all of my colleagues.

Amazing things are happening. Amazing things that have absolutely nothing to do with me and EVERYTHING to do with CHRIST!

Hmmm....do I tell.....do I let you in on the secret.....
