By Faith Promises Are Fulfilled


Hebrews 11:17
By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had received the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son...

Dear God,
Here is my son Mac. By faith, I will let go of him today. Thank you for his life. Protect him, guard him and give him victory. Be glorified in this trip to Thailand. Your will be done. Let your angels now surround him and your Holy Spirit be a hedge around him. Be his portion.
God, you are my God. I will trust in You alone.
In Jesus' Name,
Amen

  4. I have been praying --and singing and thinking of you and Mac so often over the past few days. This song is going through my head constantly --I'm sure you've heard it --The Warrior is a Child by Twila Paris:

    Lately I've been winning battles left and right
    But even winners can get wounded in the fight
    People say that I'm amazing
    Strong beyond my years
    But they don't see inside of me
    I'm hiding all the tears
    And they don't know that I go running home when I fall down
    They don't know who picks me up when no one is around
    I drop my sword and cry for just a while
    'Cause deep inside this armor
    The warrior is a child
    Unafraid because His armor is the best
    But even soldiers need a quiet place to rest
    People say that I'm amazing
    Never face retreat
    But they don't see the enemies
    That lay me at His feet
    And they don't know that I go running home when I fall down
    They don't know who picks me up when no one is around
    I drop my sword and cry for just a while
    'Cause deep inside this armor
    The warrior is a child
    And they don't know that I go running home when I fall down
    They don't know who picks me up when no one is around
    I drop my sword and look up for a smile
    'Cause deep inside this armor
    Deep inside this armor
    Deep inside this armor
    The warrior is a child
