Blessed are those who hunger. Where I Came From. October 7, 2013 in Uncategorized. Last night we watched Breakfast at Tiffany’s. It was the movie we watched on our first date and I hadn’t seen it since. I’ve been calling it my favorite movie for years because it. Then again… I. I never, ever, doubted that my dad loved me and I never stopped loving him. But I was afraid. Pretty much always afraid. And I lived life with one foot out the door. God saved me by bringing Kevin in my life and somehow we found o...

Blessed are those who hunger. From this side of the journney. August 3, 2013 in Uncategorized. God is so amazing. He can change the human heart so quickly. When we moved into this house and I ordered our checks, I picked a random image for the check only to realize that it was an icon of 2 boys and a girl in a house. I thought it was the three we would adopt – that they would all be under this roof and I wasn’t budging from this place until that happened. And then…. We look again and I fall head over hee...

The Heart Transplant | Awakened and Lovesick
https://thehungryone.wordpress.com/2013/12/02/the-heart-transplant
Blessed are those who hunger. December 2, 2013 in Uncategorized. I sit here running my fingers over a proverbial scar where the Lord did open heart surgery, exchanging a stone for flesh. It’s been two years since that knife sliced deep, seeming to rip me open. If I had not had conviction of coming redemption, I would have run from the table. I would have been left with… no heart? A badly damaged one? There’s nothing to it. Our compassion had limits. Our love had limits. Yes, adoption wrecked me. It was a...

https://thehungryone.wordpress.com/2014/07/10/birthing-baby-anonymous
Blessed are those who hunger. July 10, 2014 in Uncategorized. So, when all of the sudden I couldn’t take the noise of children in the house and had to go outside on the deck, I started to wonder. Unlike the false alarm the week before, the contractions that started at 5 pm started out strong. All of the sudden, I was like “Oh my gosh! At 1 am I was blasted away by stronger contractions. Woah! I thought. This could be it! The noise of the children was really bothering me, so I sent them to my friend acros...

Baby Anonymous | Awakened and Lovesick
https://thehungryone.wordpress.com/2014/06/27/baby-anonymous
Blessed are those who hunger. June 27, 2014 in pregnancy. This time around, with my 6th pregnancy of my 7th child, as the time drew near to schedule that ultrasound appointment, I felt a hesitancy. I heard an invitation. It wasn’t a heavenly decree or demand. I just felt the Lord say “Why don’t you choose not to find out.” WHAT! Of course that couldn’t be God! Must be my own thoughts betraying me. Or. 8221; But I think that still counts. Did I miss You in this? What does anonymous mean? Side note: Isn...
