a call for help.

i know it's been quiet here about Esther.  i'm so thankful for the many of you that

have continued to pray & ask about her.  you don't know who Esther is?  you can

click on the her 'tag' at the bottom of this post to read all my posts on her, but let

me catch you up briefly.

Esther is a 4 year old little girl that i met when we adopted clayton 2 1/2 years ago.

she has been waiting for her family for a long, long time.  she has some special needs

and just the right family is needed where she can flourish with love, therapy and proper

medical care.  many people have been searching for that family for quite some time. 

there are many reasons that i've had to stay quieter in this process and you can trust that

i'll be shouting from the rooftops of His glory when everything is official, but for now,

i have to be vague.  what i can tell you is that i need your help.  esther needs your help.

a family needs your help.

there is a family that whole-heartedly loves esther & desires for her to be their daughter.

after prayer, they have stepped out in obedience and submitted all the proper paperwork.

they have been asked to come very quickly, spend time with Esther & make sure that they

are the right family for this precious treasure.  they have very reasonable expectations

and deeply feel in their hearts that she is meant for their family,
but they have to complete this visitation step in order to be officially matched as her family.

this is where we all come in.

this is a situation that needs to happen quickly & many of us wouldn't just have

the funds to make a sudden trip to the other side of the world.

could you help this family make this trip happen?

i'm prayerful that we can raise $4,000 in the next 48 hours.

can you join us with whatever amount your heart feels led to give?

you can trust that no amount is too big or too small.

thank you for allowing this space to be about more than my family or my thoughts.
thank you for allowing it to be bigger than any of us could be if we stood alone.
there is power in our hearts standing together believing that this little girl deserves
love and a family.  thank you for standing with me... 
with this family...
with Esther.
