join us as we;
* live these lives we have been given
* learn how family looks to our Lord
* deny self
* get to the 'doing' of the hearing (James)
*work on learning not 'my' way or 'your' way, but HIS way {John 14:6}
* hebrews 10:24 it
*realize our depravity and need for the Savior

*submit to one another out of reverence to Christ

:fostering update:

been thinking about how best to post an update here. whether to add to this post or... so here is the email i sent out to family and friends. i don't know how other to word it then how i already did!

Greetings all,

We received a call from the gal who interviewed us last week sharing that she had talked to her supervisor about our not agreeing to enable the worship of any other god but our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, or the "religious rights agreement" as titled on the form, and that they cannot move forward with certifying us without that. That's where things stand. We won't agree to that so this part of the fostering journey ends here for us. Yet even in sharing this news we still are given much opportunity to share and testify. It was never about some end goal. This isn't a 'failure'. We have learned much and are curious what else He has for us in this. 

We thank those of you who have supported us in this. 

It's not about us (as i was greatly reminded of earlier this week), it's for His glory and it is my hearts ache right now that we did do just that. That we ARE doing that.
