Life begins as a Daddy and Mommy

Many of you have been asking when I’m going to blog about the last couple days, I plan on sitting down as soon as I have ALOT of time, so it will be at least a few days before I post about the amazing days we’ve experienced. I can say with confidence that the Lord was present in every conversation that took place, every prayer that was lifted up and His peace was present from start to finish. It was a blessed time, but very bittersweet for all involved. Please be praying for Amy, we called her caseworker today to check in on her, of course her heart is aching and she is having an extremely hard time…please pray for her beautiful heart.

I am sitting here in the office looking over at our son, Landon Jacob peacefully sleeping, to look over and see this amazing gift that God has given us, is undescriable…the awe I feel for the Lord is overwhelming to say the least, and to look into the eyes of my son as he stares into mine is a dream come true. He is wonderfully made, perfect in every single way…last night we had him laying in between us in our bed and we joined hands and dedicated His life to the Lord…just incrediable to see how the Lord designs life.

Life as a Mommy and Daddy has just begun, but yet we love him more than we ever knew possible. He is our miracle, a miracle that we are beyond blessed to be able to hold and see every day, every day we will be reminded through him, the miracles the Lord does.

Last sunday at church we sang this song…and I told Darrel after singing the song, these words perfeclty say what I feel for the Lord…I worship Him with a complete, beyond full, repaired heart…

Who is Like You- Generation Unleashed

You covered me with Your love
With Your hand You rescued me
Your righousness has made me whole.
Who is like You Lord, There is none like You, No one else compares to all Your magesty.
The world will know Your name, as you are lifted High and will bow down.

Who is like You Lord, no one else compares to everything You are, My everlasting arms.
You are so beautiful, You called me by name when I felt lost, with Your Word, you healed my heart. Your loving hands restored my soul.

Who is like You Lord, There is none like you no one else compares to all Your majesty.

Dear Landon,

Your life has just begun, your pure innocence is the most beautiful thing to witness, we promise to all that loves you, you will have a blessed life and its an honor, a privelage, a blessing to be able to raise you… I dream about how the Lord is going to use you, our precious son, for His glory…you already have been used not only in our lives, but in others…because of your life, others see the Lord’s faithfulness, mercy and love, others see through you how the Lord works and how He gives miracles, how He answers prayers. I cannot put into words the immense, overwhelming, powerful love we feel for you Landon, you are our everything. We cannot thank God enough for your life…for your birthmother Amy and for her family…you are going to do big things my son, I already feel this deep down in my heart…you are our miracle…we love you.

Love,

Mommy

gotta go now..he is crying…

    Lord, I am completely in awe of Your power and of Your mercy and grace. Your greatness and Your holy presence amaze me. We all have clearly seen You move over and over and over again, Lord - putting together Your perfect plan. Your love and faithfulness to us leaves us speechless. How do I thank you? I long to move your heart with worship, with the overwhelming gratitude and love I feel, God, but I can’t find words to adequately express myself. So I offer you my heart! See it! Take it as my offering of praise to You! How I rejoice with all of my soul, with all that I am for all that You have done for my precious children. You have made their lives complete; therefore, you have made my life and Pat’s life complete!!! You have replaced grief with indescribable joy! It is all because of you, Lord!!! We know that! Hallelujah Lord Jesus…HALLELUJAH to Your holy name!!!! I want to shout to the world I LOVE YOU!!!!
