GOD'S RIDDLE?

What's more powerful then God,
More evil then the Devil,
Poor has it,
Rich needs it,
If you eat it,it will kill you?



Do you know the answer?

Please Pray

I got this story from a good friend of mine: Please pray for this family.

See RQ as well as many other sites that are on the prayer line for Sandra Sheldon. Sandra's agency, Bethany (ours as well) posts the following on their 'Discussion Forums' portal on their main site .....

Bethany Christian Services appreciates your concern and prayers for the family that is in China with the recent tragedy. We have been contacted by multiple Congressional Offices as a response to your phone calls and emails. At this point, we request that you do not call your congressional representatives as they report it is not helping the offices work on the issue at hand. We have connected with the appropriate people in an organized fashion and are working diligently on behalf of this family in need. What we ask from families right now is for prayer. Thank you for your concern and cooperation in this delicate matter.

This week we learned of a very sad situation in China that I am sure many of you are aware of. A couple travelled to China and met their daughter Hannah on Monday, November 5th. Sadly earlier this week the husband went into a diabetic coma and passed away.China is allowing the adoption to continue but the American government is unclear at this time as to whether they will issue a Visa to allow Hannah to enter the United States. Americans are being urged to contact the congressmen in support of Sandi and her longing to bring Hannah home. She has lost her husband already and we don't want her to lose her daughter too.As a Canadian I have tried unsuccessfully today to contact the American government so I'm going to a Higher Power and asking you to do the same. I have been praying for Sandi and Hannah all week and am now asking that you join me in praying that Sandi will be allowed to bring Hannah home with her to the United States.I was going to post information here for Americans as to where they can contact but I read here that the Senator's office received more than 1,000 calls this morning and they are working on a solution. Once again the international adoption community has rallied behind one of it's own. Thank you for all who contacted the government but we have now been asked to stop as they're working on a solution.But, please don't stop praying. God is bigger than any government!!

So ...... just pray ..... mom's name is Sandra Sheldon and daughter name is Hannah.
In God We Trust,

Renee

UPDATE:
Sandra & Hanna are coming home!!!! Phone calls, e-mails, prayers and the efforts of the blogging community all came together to make it happen. Please continue praying for Sandra and her life as a single mom. She has some extraordinary adjustments to make. Bloggers are a good group! Amen!

Tag you're it....


I've been tagged by my friend Don and Be over at Pregnancy by Adoption for a blog game.

Players, you must list one fact that is somehow relevant to your life for each letter of your middle name. If you don’t have a middle name, use the middle name you would have liked to have had. When you are tagged, you need to write your own blog post containing your own middle name game facts. At the end of your blog post, you need to choose one person for each letter of your middle name to tag. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged & to read your blog! So, here goes ........

L = The "L"ove I have for my husband and kids.

A = "A"nticipation of waiting to see what new things my kids of learned in school.

U = The "U"nity of marriage bond, I have with Steve.

N = Born and raised in "N"orth Carolina.

A = "A"ll the New Friends I have met in the Blog World.

I tag all my new friends I have met though my Battle with Breast Cancer. They have blessed my life in ways I will never be able to repay them. Thanks for the love and support you have given me.
