ANOTHER SONG

I just have to share another song. I can't help it. I know most of you are very familiar with it, but still. It makes me cry everytime I hear it. Before I knew that we were adopting, this song B-R-O-K-E my heart. Now when I listen to it, it makes me so happy that we are giving a child HOPE for a future. Hope. Eternal hope. Praise Jesus for mountains moved! He promised Jessica that He would give her Hope. He promised her a family. Jessica is one of the fortunate ones. She will get to see her promised fullfilled on this earth, others will ahve to wait for heaven. Anyway, here is the song:

When Love Takes You In
I know you’ve heard the stories
But they all sound too good to be true
You’ve heard about a place called home
But there doesn’t seem to be one for you
So one more night you cry yourself to sleep
And drift off to a distant dream

Where love takes you in and everything changes
A miracle starts with the beat of a heart
When love takes you home and says you belong here
The loneliness ends and a new life begins
When love takes you in

And somewhere while you’re sleeping
Someone else is dreaming too
Counting down the days until
They hold you close and say I love you
And like the rain that falls into the sea
In a moment what has been is lost in what will be

When love takes you in everything changes
A miracle starts with the beat of a heart
And this love will never let you go
There is nothing that could evercause this love to lose its hold
When love takes you in everything changes
A miracle starts with the beat of a heart
When love takes you home and says you belong here
The loneliness ends and a new life begins
When love takes you in it takes you in for good
When love takes you in

The waiting is hard. I am glad to know that my little girl doesn't know I am coming. She isn't watching the clock tick like I am. She doesn't know what a family feels like so she doesn't know what she is missing. I find peace in that. Please help me pray for God's timing, but that is comes quickly.

Here is the video to When Love Takes You In if you want to watch it. Be sure to grab some tissues first.

I LOVE that song, but you already knew that. Tugs at my heart strings.

Sit back and breathe, girl!

Remember, I am the girl that gave away 85% of her baby stuff after six years of only one child only to discover I was pregnant when said only child was almost seven.

God's timing is some times closely tied in with his sense of humor - just sayin'.

I love the name of your blog!
Just last night I was looking at
our first daughter's (from China)
scrapbook and I had typed that
song up for her. It brought tears
to my eyes again. Especially this
time are daughter who is older
had become sad because all her
friends were being adopted and
she wants a family. I had to post
it on my blog with last night. :)
It is a powerful song.
Praise the Lord we only have one
A left!!!
