It Could Have Turned Out…

We all love to hear of God working in ordinary people’s lives – it builds our faith and energizes us, doesn’t it? Whether He is providing, protecting, directing, healing or surprising us – each circumstance reminds us that He is always at work around us. Always. No matter where we are, no matter what has…

Seriously guys. The love you guys show and the encouragement you extend toward the orphan and those who care for them leaves me speechless, humbled and oh-so-teary! I have some joyful reporting to do and a new update to the car fund for Emma and Josh. As most of you know I put out a…

Here at Emma’s home, internet is sparse and power is a spotty luxury….so this post was to be published a few days back…but that internet thing and that power thing and here we are…a constant reminder of just how good we have it in the US. Early one morning, just prior to leaving for Uganda,…

Last Wednesday started out as an ordinary day in so many ways but then the Lord stepped in it turned to extraordinary instantly! Here’s how it all went down… Little Missy Ruby had to go for an appointment in the heart of downtown. We left the house just after 7am with Elizabeth along as my…

That Fuzzy Stuff

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…

Yet Another HUGE Milestone

April 27, 2017April 28, 2017 Linny Saunders30 Comments

While sitting down to write this post, I started texting with Ruby’s former caregiver, Lindsey, about some essential oils she had ordered. I remembered that I hadn’t told her about Ruby’s latest milestone. Although Lindsey stopped caregiving to attend Occupational Therapy school, she was a significant part of Ruby’s healing. Ruby adores her and Lindsey…

“Just In Case”

We are heading to the one year anniversary of meeting Vern and Birdie (can you believe it??) and bringing them home and what better time to share a beautiful Memorial Box story of what God did while we were in China. Some very crazy-only-God-sized miracles happened while there and each time something happened it was…

Rolling Ahead of Us

Often we are asked how we manage to provide for our large family and the many needs. On paper, it clearly doesn’t make any sense. But God loves the orphan and when we commit to caring for one, He uses any means He wants to meet each need. Most often He uses others to…

There He Goes…Answering – Again!

In China, after Vernon told me through the translator app that he had dreamed of people jumping up and down at the airport I began to pray that the airport crowd would fill his heart with joy, making his dreams come true. I mean. How could we not want this guy of ours heart filled…

“It Just Came In A Few Minutes Ago…”

People continually ask how we afford all of our adoptions. And really, it’s a legitimate question. It is. On paper it doesn’t make sense. But God is not limited to paper and a pencil. Here’s just one more story to substantiate my case. The other day we received the update on Vernon complete with the…
