I am going to be praying so much for your family and your sweet girl. Also, I want you to know that I think I know that orphanage where Olivia is...I have worked with this couple over the last 10 years (even when they were at a different orphanage). I would LOVE to help y'all in ANY WAY!! Please feel free to e-mail me any time. It is lindseyewheeler at hotmail.com. I am so unbelievably sick for y'all...and want to help.<br /><br />Hoping,<br />Lindsey WheelerChris and Lindsey Wheelerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11425212282646870113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5147300783206153984.post-66509834283908624302010-06-12T07:18:40.307-07:002010-06-12T07:18:40.307-07:00What an answer to prayer.

Just that little reminder that she is in God's hands and He knew the judge would rule this way and allowed her to be placed in a Christian Orphanage is amazing. Even in the worst storm the special way He shows us He loves us is the encouragment and strength that we need to keep going and keep hopeing. I have so much love for you and precious Olivia and will continue to pray. May the words of "Dare to Believe" continue to uplift you when you feel your hearts just can't bare the weight of this trial any longer. Fervent prayers and love,<br />ChristyChristy Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00720421427512753753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5147300783206153984.post-59528301154097755242010-06-12T04:14:15.746-07:002010-06-12T04:14:15.746-07:00I just left a really long comment and it got lost....I just left a really long comment and it got lost...<br /><br />Basically what I want to say (as tears run down my cheeks) is that<br /><br />God must count your family so faithful to be going through this hard hard trial. <br /><br />We always want (I do) God's answer/ending to be mine. <br /><br />That is a perfect song! Life is not a snapshot. There are so many hurts and joys along the way.<br /><br />I pray your "ending" to this story comes soon and you get your little Olivia with you.<br /><br />Oh how strong your sweet Emily will be on the other side of this, by God's grace. She is a tender and sweet big sister.<br /><br />We love you and will continue to lift you up in prayer, hand in hand...<br /><br />hopefully and prayerfully making your load just a little bit lighter!<br /><br />What a blessing and answer to prayer to find where she is and have some sort of "connection". God is SO GOOD not to leave you completely hopeless!<br /><br />We love you!<br /><br />The LittlesTraci Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05868420770414629597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5147300783206153984.post-28415378478399265322010-06-12T04:09:52.400-07:002010-06-12T04:09:52.400-07:00Oh my, Bryan and Sue. I'm weeping with you......Oh my, Bryan and Sue. I'm weeping with you... I just can't imagine what you are going through.<br /><br />I'm on vacation right now, that's why i was not able to respond to the last update.<br /><br />It is amazing how what we thing the ending should be (and when) is sometimes STILL not God's answer or God's ending. I always want God's ending to be MINE. I'm sure you do to. <br /><br />He must count your family SO FAITHFUL to be going through this. I know you all just want your little Olivia home for good.<br /><br />That song was PERFECT. I have never heard of it. "Would you dare to believe" "When you feel the weight of glory, all your pain will fade to memory" praise the Lord!<br /><br />I like that it said that our life is not a snapshot. There is a purpose.<br /><br />Oh what your precious Emily will come out as on the other side of this too. She has gone through so much and she will be stronger for it by God's grace!<br /><br />We love you all and though our hearts are SO BURDENED right now with you, we know that we have a Savior that is in control (even when things seem more out of control than EVER)!<br /><br />What great, COMFORTING news that you got in touch with Olivia's orphanage! Praise the Lord. He is so good to give you that "connection" in the waiting.<br /><br />Love you all!<br /><br />TraciTraci Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05868420770414629597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5147300783206153984.post-58973019298160831612010-06-12T03:37:14.925-07:002010-06-12T03:37:14.925-07:00I'm glad to hear she is in good hands for now....I'm glad to hear she is in good hands for now.

If she is, I have been there, and met the couple who runs the orphanage. They are wonderful, and truly love the children. They are well loved and taken care of. It cannot replace her foster family, but they are wonderful. I wish you luck, and continue to keep you in our prayers. <br /><br />If you have any questions, you can e-mail me at sweetiepiekc@roadrunner.comBobbihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07620227823593955955noreply@blogger.com
