The girls and I were having devotions this morning and since I'm sick I wasn't going to read out loud, however Abbi insisted I read Psalm 91. When I asked her why I would read that she responded, "I saw one of the Raven football players had a tattoo with that scripture on his chest." That's all I needed to hear! Imagine our amazement when we found the following verses:
"He will cover you with his feathers and under his wings you will find refuge, his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart."Besides the fact I posted that verse yesterday this verse was a foundational verse we clung too when we found out we were moving last year. Faith and I had been doing a Kay Arthur study and both of us had pictures or words from God surrounding this verse! For me the words were gathering our family together. I sensed Him saying, "I'm going to gather you under my wings and bring your family closer than ever." We have felt God perform this work time and again since we moved almost 14 months ago. :)
A bit down in the chapter, verse 14-15 says:
"Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him."
Yes, I think I LOVE JUICE for breakfast! God is so faithful to answer prayers.
A couple answers for our questions today:
- Are we too old to adopt in the U.S.? We talked with our friend at Special Link, an adoption clearing house we used when we adopted Abbi. Carri's answer was, "No, you guys are not a bit too old. I've placed with couples in their 50's."
- Can we get our plumbing moved in the basement to get back to a future bedroom? The plumber's answer: "Very, very costly to move the existing plumbing."
