Six Months

Golly, golly!  How can it be that we've had our sweet Eyob for six months already?  I can still so clearly remember the relief as we touched down on American soil.  The disappointment and exhaustion as we barely missed our next flight and had to overnight in Atlanta.  The sheer joy and overwhelming awesomeness of being united as a family of seven, in front of our closest family and friends!


So half a year in, I can say that we're finally, really finding our groove as a family.  Looking back, it's hard to believe that we've come so far in such a short amount of time.  This is one tough and brave boy!

I'm so grateful for the journey that we're on and for the change that Eyob has brought to our lives.  We are praying for boldness to change the world.  We can't fix everything.  We can't give a home to every orphan.  We can't feed them all or provide them with medical care.  We can't do everything, but we can do something.  We can sponsor a child.  We can provide a well for clean drinking water.  We can travel back to Africa to serve the people there.  We can be His hands and feet.  What can you do?  

Our pastor says to identify your burden, which will uncover your passion.  Great starting place!  What burdens you?
