Meditating both day and night!

Jeremiah 29:11-14a

"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back from your captivity."

I Samuel 1:10-18

"And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to the Lord and wept in anguish........And it happened as she continued praying before the Lord,......Then Eli answered and said, 'Go in peace, and the God of Israel grant your petition which you have asked of Him'.....So the woman went her way and ate, and her face was no longer sad."

Psalm 126

"When the Lord brought back the captivity of Zion, we were like those who dream. Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, 'The Lord has done great things for them.' The Lord has done great things for us, whereof we are glad. Bring back our captivity, O Lord, as streams in the South. Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy. He who continually goes forth weeping, bearing seed for sowing, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him."

Thanks again to everyone who continues to lift us up in prayer and encourage us! We are forever grateful!!

We won't stop praying til you're all home! (And then we'll be praying for the transition and everything that comes after it!) We are covering you, sister! May He keep you in His perfect peace.

Michelle- God has laid you heavily on my heart tonight. It is late, but I am up... keeping watch, praying, meditating with you and for you. It's 12:53am, officially Monday! I have high hopes for this day... that THIS will be THE day. Whatever the case, know that you are being loved and prayed for by so many!

It's Monday morning and I'm praying that this will be the day you receive your appointment. May God hasten the work for your family.
