This morning, i read a verse in Isaiah that led me to reflect and rejoice at the work God has done in the short 19 months that i have been working with Masana.
"Lift up your eyes and look around; all your sons gather and come to you. As surely as I live, declares the Lord, you will wear them all as ornaments; you will put them on, like a bride."
Isaiah 49:18
one of the deepest desires of my heart is be a bride...a wife and a mother. with the life that i have chosen to live, i am not sure that that is going to happen. so this verse is a beautiful promise to me. though i have no sons of my own womb, when i lift up my eyes and look around, i see that God has given me so many sons. and i have the beautiful privilege of seeing these sons reunited with their earthly families.
these are my sons that are now back with their families:
Felix
Aderito
Fabiao
Janerio
Abrantis
Castigo
Biggs
Emilton
Marcus
Leonel
Danilio
Carlos
Fazenda
Antonio
Antonio
Pedro
Declesio

Sarah, this is cool. I love the faithfulness of the Lord. I love that He knows the desires of our hearts, and fills them... even sometimes in ways that are different or higher than our own thoughts. I love what you are doing.
Beautiful post, Sarah. Your heart for the Lord and His children is so evident. I am praising God for the children He has already touched through your life in life-changing ways. Praying for you always. =)
God bless, Melissa
