UPDATE ON INDIA SOUL

Thank you to all for your faithful and God-honoring prayers! Praise God! It seems that the Lord has ordained more time for our little India here with us as He has touched her body with healing. We received word today that she has left the hospital and is going back to the orphanage to continue recovering!! Because of God's grace, our little girl has beat the odds.

This tiny precious one still needs our prayers as we ask the Lord to further heal her and sustain her life. We are still uncertain about the skin condition she has been dealing with and pray for healing and a diagnosis for that as well. We pray for the hands of those who are generously and lovingly caring for her in our absence. We pray for the paperwork to resolve quickly so that we can bring her and her big brother home as soon as possible.

We can't wait to take good care of our little loved ones. We can't wait to shower them with affection. We can't wait to tell them they are special and cherished and that they belong.

Thank you, Lord, for your healing touch on India Soul's life. Thank you for the privilege to pray for her as the body of Christ. May we all continue in fervent prayer, close to you, on our knees where you want us in good times and trials. You hear our prayers, God. You love each individual uniquely. Thank you that you've held our children in the shelter of your loving care as we cannot hold them yet ourselves. You are good, God! You are loving and responsive to your people! May we honor you with thanksgiving and praise you for what you have done and what you will do through the lives of India Soul and our Noble. Amen.

"Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." Philippians 4:4-8
