Love knows no language

Love knows no language.  Wiliam has confirmed what this truly means to me.  When my spanish lacks and is inadequate, he shows me that we don't need words to show our love for eachother.  These eyes and this smile is God's daily gift to me.  He's precious.  He never has a shortage of hugs, kisses, or smiles for me.  He gets angry at me when I leave the house and is attached to my leg when I come home.  He hardly keeps me out of his sight.  I love this little man so much.  We came to the orphanage the same day and his personality and love only grows each day.  I pray the day this boy leaves the orphanage he knows how deep and how wide the love of the Lord is.  That God has always been and will always be holding him in his hands.  That He gives unlike any human can.  That he will always be there to care for him.  God will never leave him or abandon him.   Like my niece says, "God is POWERFUL!" Thank you Lord for Wiliam who will forever be a part of me.


Wiliam, age 3
"When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong.  And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.
Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.  Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.
--Ephesians 3:14-21 NLT
