"For this is like the waters of Noah to Me..." Isaiah 54:9a Back in 2000, the Lord gave me this verse. The sidebar had a note saying...God is making a new beginning with His people so startling that it can only be compared to the new beginning and the new covenant He made with Noah. At the time, I did not know all that it entailed and probably still don't.
As I have looked back at our last five years I can put many things under the heading Surprise.
Moving to a whole new area we never imagined we'd live and absolutely loving it!
One year later, baby Ellie was born and became ours through a miraculous testimony of adoption through the foster system.
A little over a year later, I find out I will be pregnant with Ayla through embryo adoption and experience a near pain-free labor and delivery with her!
I am sure there are other things, but the latest big news is that the house Toby had built as an investment...well, it seems the Lord intended it for us all along. As we looked back at the details of the house, we can see how God took special care about things that would be important to us. One being air conditioning. We didn't opt for it to save money and they accidentally installed it, and we got it for cheap! When we clued into the fact that this house would be ours, it was right when all the decisions needed to be made for paint, carpet, tile etc.
We are very excited and our moving in this weekend. Our current house just went on the market. So we need to stand in faith for a buyer. As I look at all God has done, it is amazing! Miracle afer miracle. What an insult to Him, when I fear things. He remains ever-faithful!
