Six years

Six years ago today, our lives drastically changed.
Six years ago today, we met our first group of girls and began this journey of houseparenting.
I cannot believe that it has been six years! You would think that I would have a great, wonderful post about the past six years but the words are not coming.

The only thing I can think of to do is close with a prayer for "my kids"-Father, you blessed me at an early age with the knowledge that I am and always will be your daughter. Thank you for giving me the chance to plant that seed in so many other children over the past six years. It is so comforting to know that You are still watching over them and know exactly where they are even though I don't. Lord, water the seed you planted through us and send the right people to harvest it. Protect them from the evil that is around them. Make Your perfect, holy presence evident, known and felt in their lives. Remind me that this work is about You not me and that the responsiblity is Yours not mine. Grant us the strength to continue to do Your work while Satan attacks.
