There is something my son has been asking for since last summer when we first hosted him. We have told him that we would really love to give him this gift, but for now, it’s just not possible. We told him to pray about it and if the Lord really wants him to have this gift, then the Lord will find a way to provide it for him.
We want him to learn that the Lord cares about our needs and wants too. He may not always give us all our wants, be He does care about them.
Today I got a phone call from a friend. Guess what she is giving my son?? The very thing that we could not provide, but she can.
Curious? Well, I can’t tell you!! I have to tell him first and I am not sure if I can wait 23 days until we are home to tell him, so I may tell him once we get there.
Please pray that the Lord watches over this “gift” in the next 23 days until it can be given to our son when he gets home.
I’ll let you know what it is if I can’t keep this wonderful secret that long. I am terrible at Christmas keeping secrets! I know the Lord will let me know if it’s the right time to tell our son about this. Maybe it will help make his huge transition just a little bit easier for him.
We are so very grateful to her for providing this for him!
6 days until we fly!
