All totaling = the Season of Sofi
Many miracles far preceded these dates, but that season was a beautiful blur. This blog is a treasure as we go back through the astounding Providence God revealed over and over again.
Four years ago, we were packing and praying for a trip around the world. We landed in China on Thanksgiving day, but my feet never hit the ground. My spirit was in awe and anticipation of what God was doing.
We held Sofi the day after her 3rd birthday.
Next week she will turn 7, and family takes the majority. She has now spent more of her life in her home than not. Those are precious words when you are healing deep wounds.
Sofi chose the words family and home for our Thanksgiving wall.
Her sweet heart doesn't even know yet what God has done to restore those blessings.
May He continue to restore all things.
"For I know the plans I have for you" declares the Lord. Jeremiah 29:11
God's plans for Sofi have only just begun.
Please reflect back with us, and praise God for His faithfulness . . .
