Scriptures:
“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you. When you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior”  Isaiah 43:2-3 (NIV)

They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor.”  Isaiah 61:3c (NIV)

“But blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence is in him.”  Jeremiah 17:7 (NIV)

This is what the LORD says: ‘Cursed is the one who trusts in man, who draws strength from mere flesh and whose heart turns away from the LORD. That person will be like a bush in the wastelands; they will not see prosperity when it comes. They will dwell in the parched places of the desert, in a salt land where no one lives. But blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence is in him. They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green.  It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.”  Jeremiah 17:5-8 (NIV)

  1. Wow, this was great. I am an adoptive Mother, our daughter was adopted at 7 and is now 12. It has been beyond difficult. I love to hear other Mom’s share their story and to provide encouragement.

    2. Im so grateful it encouraged you Sherie. It’s so important that we hear from other moms in the trenches struggling through the same things and find strength through Christ and the strategies we are all learning along the way. Praying for you and your family tonight. ~Renee
