UPDATE- A HUGE PRAYER REQUEST

UPDATE- Karlton spoke with our Realtor this morning. She told him she had called the guy back yesterday to tell him our new price. He is meeting her out there again today! This is the 2nd time he has looked at it Since Sat. Ya! So this is a positive ...... Keep praying everyone it is working!!!!!!!!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Karlton just called our Realtor to ask her to drop the price of the land. She told him that it was funny that he called because she had just shown it to a father whom loved it and wants to buy it for his daughter. He wanted to know what the least we would take for it. Karlton told her to drop it $15,000. So..... she is calling him today to let him know the price. Please PRAY this is s good enough deal that he can snatch it up!!!! PLEASE, DEAR HEAVENLY FATHER LET US SALE THIS!!!!!

If we do get the new asking price for the land we will not get all of the business debt taken care of but we will not have to go BANKRUPT , if the land does not sale by Sept. 1 we will !

PLEASE PRAY AND KEEP YOUR FINGERS CROSSED!

Verses that really spoke to me and helped me get through our adoptions.

(John 14:18) " I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you."

(Isaiah 43:5-6) "Do not be afraid, for I am with you,
I will bring your children from the west. Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth."

(Proverbs 25:25) "As cold water is to a thirsty soul : so is good
news from a far country."

(Matthew 6:25-34) The do not worry chapter.
This is the chapter that told me we would adopt again and the
baby girl woud be named Lily (Lilee). "The lilies of the field".
This is a great reminder of why we should not worry, God will take care of his people!

(Psalms 82: 3-4) "Defend the cause of the weak and the fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Resue the weak and neady; deliver them from the hand of the wicked."

(Psalms 68: 5) "A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling."

(Deuteronomy 10:18) " He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow and loves the alien, giving them food and clothing."

(Philippians 4:13) "I can do all things through him who gives me strength."

(Philippians 4:6-7) " Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present
your request to God. And the peace of God,which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

(Romans 8:28) " And we know that all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."

(James 1:27) "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after the orphans and widows in their destress, and to keep oneself from being polluted from by the world."
