If you ever need to talk to someone who ...OH Amy! <br /><br />If you ever need to talk to someone who understands, email me. I'd be glad to share phone #s too. I STILL after two plus years grieve the trip that might have been for our S and yet she is home and doing well ... and I feel guilty for feeling that way at all.<br /><br />And then the past 6 months with our boys home. H.A.R.D. I have questioned God more in the past 6 months I think than in my whole walk with Him previously. I have felt forsaken over and over. And then I feel guilty and fearful.<br /><br />Yeah, my friend, I can relate. I am so sorry for all you've been through! I admire your courage. I wish I would've emailed b/c I have often wondered about you when your blog was never update but I figured life was just busy with 5 children. Well it is but you know I figured you had just moved on from blogging.<br /><br />Sweet hugs and prayers and PLEASE blog about your mission trip!!! <br /><br />LeslieWife of the Pres.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18325629674978160122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5795747070950663808.post-23613531022082781192010-12-27T18:25:40.620-06:002010-12-27T18:25:40.620-06:00Beautifully written, Amy.

Your faith has always been and continues to be an encouragement to me - not a faith of fairy tales and good times (even though you've had a lot of those), but a true, real faith that asks the hard questions and goes through the hard times, but still chooses to believe. I'll be praying for you friend!Amy Piercehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14508132202800927717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5795747070950663808.post-63494013727597715312010-12-18T15:15:17.439-06:002010-12-18T15:15:17.439-06:00Wow, how beautifully you articulated what you'...Wow, how beautifully you articulated what you've bee through. That post left me in tears, not out of sadness but rather awe that our God shows us His best when we are at our worst. Praying He will continue to mold you into His likeness through your trip. Personally I didn't think you could get much better than you already are but He has even greater things in store for you, sister!! :) Thanks for letting us see what He's doing!Elissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07815575185189615176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5795747070950663808.post-85354698426966971512010-12-18T14:55:36.621-06:002010-12-18T14:55:36.621-06:00Amy,
I do not know if you remember me but I have ...Amy,<br /><br />I do not know if you remember me but I have followed your blog since your first adoption. We adopted last year, Lydia Hope but my blog has gone private now. This past year has been much like yours and I am encouraged to know that I am not alone. I am so sorry for you and I was really praying for you and Brian this time last year. <br /><br />We moved back to the States in April from<br />the UK and it has been so hard. I lost my baby boy at 18 weeks pregnant and held him in our hands in awe of God <br />and His creation. But oh how it has been hard and I grieve over my son still. In the midst of all this we were living with my in laws(still are) and had a house fall through. I have cried out to God asking him why and yet knowing that He is in control. But why make it so hard for us when it was already difficult moving here and leaving the church in the UK that we had planted and all those I love, family and friends. God has used all this to draw me into a close relationship with Him so for that I am thankful! And I can honestly say that I will still praise Him even when He takes away the things and ones I love!<br /><br />Please know that my heart breaks for you and I shall be praying for you!! I had also hoped to go on a trip to Et and Uganda with VO but had to cancel it when I realised I was pregnant. I would still love to goone day!! But I am so thrilled for your trip there!! I'll be praying that the Lord will use it to bring such healing. But know this also that God will use your hurts to give you more compassion to those in<br /> Africa.<br /><br />Thank you for being honest!! I have been very open this last year about my struggles on<br />my blog and how God has ministered to me! I know there are many others who appreciate others being real. <br /><br />Blessings and love,<br />NaomiNaomihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12114223431580415336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5795747070950663808.post-76818957281395391962010-12-18T14:32:17.005-06:002010-12-18T14:32:17.005-06:00Loved reading all you wrote.

Praise God for His unfailing love! I will pray for your trip, and I will pray against fear, for you and your sweet family.
