Prayers

^{This is the land we found last week for our future trafficking rescue home.  It is truly breath taking.  It feels like home.  I want to go there daily and sit.  It is massive.  It is perfect.  It comes with cows, creeks, mountains, mango trees, avocado trees, corn, squash, an outhouse that has a 30 foot drop for wastes, oh everything, really.  Today, we took the kids to run around and pray over it...again.  We have done this a few times without the kids.} 

But now we are waiting...

This photo is incredible, isn't it?  Great job, God!  Look at that sky!

^{Mark 11:22} “Have faith in God,” Jesus answered. ²³ “Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. ²⁴ Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. 

 James ^1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. ⁶ But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. ⁷ That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord.

Psalm 32:8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
    I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.

^{John 16:12-15} “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. ¹³ But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. ¹⁴ He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you. ¹⁵ All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.”

 Ephesians 3:20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, ²¹ to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.

Be praying for us this week, please.  I wake up to this land prayer. I think about it all day long. I end my days praying about it as I fall asleep. I toss and turn throughout the night, rolling over in crazy Holy Spirit prayers asking for Him to answer and then fall back to sleep.  I must admit I am never a fan of waiting for answers...but I praise His name that I even get to be a tiny part of His grand plans for the kids of this country.
