The Knot and The Promise

I don't have much to say, just hanging onto that knot at the end of my rope. But I saw this on another Ghana family's blog, and it felt just right for today:
Hebrews Chapter 10:
35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.
36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

In FHE tonight we talked about Trust and Faith, and how our faith in Jesus Christ allows us to do things. J taught that trust causes us to act. We talked about how people can fail us and break our trust, but our Lord will never fail us. His plan for us is divine and perfect and we follow it because we trust Him. And so we wait another day and we hang onto the picture we've had in our minds for 7 months now of a little girl with a huge smile and tiny braids. He put it there and has made that image a reality that we have seen with our own eyes and held in our arms. We WILL "receive the promise."
