I know The Queen B and I share some Peeps.
Well, actually, she had the Peeps and I just lured them over here to read Beachy Mimi.
There are few subjects we won't tackle in public...but there are a few.
B is a super young woman despite mistakes made my her mama during her life.
I haven't commented much on the LaP adoption because I felt it was their story to tell until I get my hands on her and take over as I have fought to do with The Princess heh heh Believe me, The Princess is a much more well rounded individual due to her Mimi influence.
While The Palace is choosing to take the high road in this lastest setback, Beachy Mimi's road is a little bit lower down and not paved, so basically I can say what I want.
God is in control. That is the basis of my life. I know that He can change situations in an instant if He chooses.
Throughout all my years involved with churches and working with people, I have run in to a few that seem to forget they were "called" by God and in fact, they are NOT God.
A MINOR POINT THAT TOTALLY CHANGES THE FOCUS OF A MINISTRY.
Please joing me in praying for LaP's safety and for the one who has decided no more adoptions will occur for any reason.
God started this whole thing...and He will be faithful to complete it. In His Time.
So, I can have my temper fit, rant and rave, but God still has a time schedule, and since He is the Boss of me, I respect (though maybe not understand) His timing.
I also know that whatever He has in store for LaP is better than anything we would do on our own.

I read the Queen's post and, oh, my heart aches for her mama's heart. Our family life verse is Jer. 29:11 and I reminder her of that verse as I know there are no adequate words to comfort her (or any of your family) right now.
Be blessed... all of you!
Thinking of y'all much and many prayers going up.
I like how you have decided to pray for the heart change of the one who has decided there will be no more adoptions.
You have spoken the truth in a lovely way.
Mark 11:23 (New Living Translation)
I tell you the truth, you can say to this mountain, ‘May you be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and it will happen. But you must really believe it will happen and have no doubt in your heart.
Hey, Mountain! Yooooouuuuu'rrrrrre outta here!!!
Love you and B and the whole family so much!
"I also know that whatever He has in store for LaP is better than anything we would do on our own."
You said it right there. Complete trust. You cry out to God in pain and wonder why He would allow this, but ultimately, you trust Him.
Prayers for your family. I am so sorry for your heartache and frustration.
I read B's post and I will continue to pray for them. Thanks for sharing! I love a little outburst when the road turns heavy. It always seems to light my heart! And you are right it is always in God's timing. But sometimes I just wish He would hurry up!!!
Many times as believers we think we have to be "happy" about everything and keep how we really feel to ourselves. Tragic things happen that are very difficult to endure. However, God does redeem those difficulties.
Thanks for sharing your heart!
I am still praying.....
I just told B...it's ok to be mad at God, just don't stop the conversation. You're right-He knows best and will probably look the other way if we throw a small tantrum about this.
And yes, I'm continuing to pray about this. I wouldn't dream of stopping!
Hey Lady, I just read and commented on Queen's post. I am quite upset. Was wondering what Mimi had to say :) I applaud your whole family for trusting God, even though we don't understand or agree. Going through a similar struggle at our house on a couple of issues. It's so much easier to say God is sovereign when things are going as expected. I am so proud of you guys for saying it when things are not going as anticipated. Praying for you all.
Mimi, I am so sorry. I am praying for all of you and especially precious La P.
