This beautiful smile belongs to Joshua's mama, Sonia.
I've never met Sonia in person,
but I like her a whole lot.
She is the mama to seven boys and I find that very impressive.
She is also very, very funny, and I love funny people!
She's also an Air Force wife, like me,
so I like that too!
Sonia loves Jesus -- and she
shows it, by being
His Hands and Feet
here on earth.
I like that. A lot.
Today what I love most about Sonia is
her facebook status update . . .
because it says this:
"4 suh-weet letters.
H.O.M.E.
Hoping to be paroled sometime this afternoon.
What. A. Journey"
--Sonia Martin
Did you catch that?
Joshua.
Joshua who used-to-be-very-blue
-but-now-he-is-pink,
that Joshua.
Joshua who was an orphan,
with a very, very broken heart--
whose heart has been made new
by our miracle working God,
that Joshua.
Joshua, now a son and brother
who has a family
that loves him beyond measure!
Joshua who now has a
place where he belongs . . .
a home of his own.
Yes,
that Joshua
is going HOME--
for the first time ever!
Oh how mighty is our God!
Thank you Lord for rescuing Joshua! Thank you for the mighty work You have done in his life, thank You for healing him! We ask for continued healing of Joshua's heart and lungs, and every inch of his precious lanky little body. Grow him strong in You Lord! Thank you for giving his family strength for this journey. Thank you that You will continue to be their strength in the days and weeks ahead. Be with Joshua as he heads home, Lord-- as he learns what it means to be a part of a family. Flood him with your peace, Lord, and surround the Martin household in Your love as they are reunited. Thank you Lord for all you have done! In Jesus' name, Amen!
Thank you all for standing in prayer for this little man, please don't stop praying as his new journey begins.
I stand amazed.
Blessings from my nest~
