If you would please keep praying for Andrew. He has God in his head, but doesn't understand how to believe with his heart. Andrew is holding on to the things of his past and is having a hard time letting go. A lot of things have gone, but some things he doesn't want to let go of.
I believe he has a destiny. God saved him for a reason. Andrew's under attack, and the enemy wants to keep him, but our God is bigger! When you have an anointing on you and your family, all hell is going to come against you. Andrew does have an anointing! Please pray for a break through for him and a true revelation of who Jesus Christ is!
Mark and I couldn't do this without all of your prayers. We are so grateful for the friends we have met through Andrew's adoption. You all are more than friends, you are like family to us. Thank you for the uplifting comments and emails with encouraging words. Blessings!
Sending prayers!

ReplyDeleteWhen I feel discouraged about how our new son is adjusting I think about the post you wrote about how things were finally changing. When you first came home it was this way and now.....only with God is there hope. My biggest prayer for our new son is that He know God and that the Holy Spirit work in him faith to believe. I pray for Andrew too! I pray that he not be able to imagine a life without God. I pray that everything in him feel his need for a savior and that with courage he grab hold of Jesus waiting arms! Thank you for sharing your story!

Hansina,
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog and enjoy it very much. Andrew is such a brave boy and your family is wonderful.
Feel free to delete this if you don't know or can't respond, but I'm wondering if you know the status of the Higbie adoption of Lera? I've seen nothing on their blog since last year. What has become of them/her?

I don't know what happened. I will see if I can find out.

DeletePraying for Andrew to know Christ as his Savior. Trusting & believing!
ReplyDeletePraise the Lord about Sebastain! Is that the name of the boy whose picture you posted in your last blog? I am wanting to pray more for these kids that are aging out of the system like Andrew was. Is there an agency that deals with all older kids, or a blog where we can find them? How can I find out about older kids aging out in order to pray for them?
ReplyDeleteI pray daily for Andrew. God has such great plans for him! I am encouraged to read your posts, and will re-double my efforts. The closer he gets to being saved, the more I know the transformation, when it comes, will be huge. GOD IS WORKING! Thanks for your heart. For the tough posts you write. For sharing your thoughts and your family with us. For sharing Andrew's story with us, even as it keeps developing. I'm grateful for you! God bless. -Nicole
Yes! That is him! I don't know of any one particular website with older kids. There are a lot out there! You can look at Project Hopeful and....oh, I can't remember the name of the other one! If it comes to me I will post it! Thank you so much for praying for these older kids! You are a blessing, Nicole!
