He opened my eyes and now I see.
He opened my eyes and now I see
He opened my eyes and now I see!
Yesterday was a busy day I didn't get on the computer like usual I didn't serf to see the new kids Reeces Rainbow had listed like I usually do. I was busy running around. when I got home at about 5 Madison was with me and she checked her facebook first she then sent me a picture of a baby boy that changed my world forever. As soon as I saw him I knew he was ours. I started shaking all over, I started crying, I heard God say," this one is yours, he is yours!" and it was like I could see a smile on the Lords face and a tone in his voice as if to say see I told you I would show you I told you it was my plan. I sent his picture to Mike and told him about him Mike said Ok and I said are you sure and he said what choice do I have . That's just Mike that's how he process things. Then I called Madison over and hugged her and I cried and said, "I think this is the one, hes the one" and she cried too. I sent an email right away saying we wanted more info and that in fact we wanted him. she didn't send anything back till this morning but this morning I got an email from her telling all about him. His Birthday is March 30 he is two, he does not yet sit up on his own, he drinks a bottle, he is only 10 lbs and he is 26 inches. That is smaller then Alex who is 4 mo old. And he is in the bad place the place where the kids are starved and in cribs all day long, hardly ever changed, never loved or held. He is in that place. This does not scare me because I have seen what love can do for these children. It just makes me more excited to get him home.
Now here is the bad thing it is $3500 to commit to him. We don't have that! So what are we going to do? Why am I so scared? we did this for Vahnya and the money was there just as it needed to be and I know God will do the same now. So now at this point and time we need $3500 so we can pay the agency, next we will need $600 to pay our social worker for our new homestudy and $840 to pay for USCIS. but lets take it one at a time right now we need $3500
Here is the picture that made my eyes open.

Break my heart Lord for what breaks yours
Break my heart Lord for what breaks yours. This is the hard facts about how some children live. It is hard to even read the stories or look at the pictures let alone watch the video. But if it is hard for us to even do that think of how much harder it is to live it every second of your life and to know nothing else!
