Motivation

While reading the bible today when Liz was napping, I found this verse and I have been reading it off and on all day. Liz and I also made a little shrine in our room. The stuffed animal is a beanie babies Daschund ofcourse. This will be Nayeli's first and very own Doxie!

2 Samuel 22:29

You, Lord, are my lamp
the Lord turns my darkness into light
With your help I can advance against any troop (or battle!)
with my God, I can scale a wall.

As for God, his way is perfect
The Lords word is flawless
He shields all who take refuge in him
For who is God besides our Lord
And who is the rock besides our God
It is God who arms me with strength
and keeps my way secure
He makes my feet like the feet of a deer
and causes me to stand on new heights.

He trains my hands for battle
my arms can bend a bow of bronze
You make your saving help my shield
Your help has made me great
You provide a broad path for my feet
So that my ankles do not give way!

Terri, just wanted you to know Liz and I have been keeping up with Ava's latest journey. This bible verse made me think of you and Brian.

Liz and Shane all I can do is keep thinking of you guys and Nayeli. I'm sorry this is taking so long. Hoping the delivery to come soon. That Bible verse is so true. Thanks for sharing that with me. I'm am hubled by the fact that with all you both are going through right now you are thinking about us and our daughter Ava. Stay strong and trust God will bring us all through this rough , rocky, tretrerous, dangerous, long, road.
