Two Little Treasures on Opposite Sides of the World

November 6, 2019November 6, 2019 Linny Saunders1 Comment

Throughout life the Lord in His kindness brings such precious people across our paths. Not long after we moved to Phoenix we visited a church here in the valley. Ruby was tiny and needing to feed her I was led to a nursing mother’s room. It actually was like a party in the room! There…

Well it’s official – our little Miss Birdie Bee is 7-years-old!! Seven!! Although Birdie doesn’t really understand what a birthday is, and she is unable to say “seven” (or most words for that matter) she sure knew what I meant when I told her, “It’s going to be Birdie’s birthday and we will sing (and…

Our miracle girl is at it again because of our great God’s astounding faithfulness!! Remember medical professionals said she would never do anything because of her severe brain disease (multiloculated hydrocephalus with over 12 pockets of water that her surgeon and I can count). Some even said that she wasn’t worth feeding (yes they actually…

Seven Years Later…Who Would Have Guessed?

March 26, 2018March 26, 2018 Linny Saunders6 Comments

It’s almost been seven years since it all began – that day that I jumped on the blog and wrote a brief post asking for prayer for a one-year-old girl. Emma had found her in the corner of an orphanage where she and Dwight were leading a mission team and that baby girl was clearly…

“Are You Here to See Me?”

While visiting my dad in Buffalo I spent part of each day with him where he lives. On Wednesday at dinnertime the staff had told me that guests are not allowed in the dining room while the residents eat. I walked over to the hallway outside the wide entrance. As I turned to face the…

That Fuzzy Stuff

January 22, 2018 Linny Saunders2 Comments

If you’ve stopped by our Place more than a few times you’ve come to understand that one of my most favorite things to talk about is not only how much God loves to hear our concerns but how much more He loves to answer them and just how faithful He always is! For years I…

A Glimpse…

These last few weeks our family has been talking, as we entered 2018, about 2017 and all that it entailed. It was quite a year on so many fronts! There were difficult days (actually some really difficult days) but our faithful God, who has never failed us in the past, remained astoundingly faithful throughout all…

Our Christmas Miracle

Over the last few days, as I was praying about writing today, I knew I had to share something very personal because is so fresh and so powerful. Also I am certain that we are not alone in what we walk through. No doubt, many of you are walking through very similar situations. As we…

You guys are the best! Your response has been a-mazing and Dw and I are ever so slowly calling people and pinning pins! We are lining up the trip to Western New York through a northern route! Before long, we will, Lord willing, be lining up the route back, along the south and we are…

One Holy and Very Humbling Moment

April 1, 2017 Linny Saunders5 Comments

Almost 18 years ago I found myself leaning against Emma and Liberty’s bedroom wall listening to Emma’s most sincere and innocent night time prayer. Her little voice prayed totally out of the blue, “Please let me be the one you pick to go to Africa to take care of the orphans…..” In fact I opened…
