I wanted to tell you that I love the song that you chose for the blog (from the Fireproof soundtrack).
That very song was playing on the radio in the car when we came out of the doctor's office on the day that we found out the baby was not ok. I sang that song everyday (many times a day) as we waited for God's answer.
Waiting is often the hardest part of our trials. But waiting is also the time that we can learn the most about the Lord, grow in our faith in Him, and the time that He can do His greatest works in us.
Trust in Him while you wait. Cling to Him while you wait. And know that His answers and His timing will be absolutely perfect. He is perfect. He loves you. And His answers are always based on His perfect love for you!
Praying for you daily...while you wait!
Love Aggie
