Miracles

happen. 

They are real. I'm still trying to figure out how in the world Joshua's heart cleared up (or whatever it did) so fast. 

China was wrong (which is weird because I'm used to seeing smart Asians beat me on tests).

Wow. 

Glory.

I can't believe it. God is real. He is good & faithful & merciful. 

How in the world can I possibly ever ever ever doubt a God who is able to heal a 7 year old Chinese boy in a matter of days? He knew we were going to the throne for him. He knows he has a family in numerous cities outside of Florida. 

God knew that we earnestly wanted J to be healed. He delayed Gotcha day because he wanted J home at just the right time. God's timing is amazing. 

Wow. WOW. Gets me excited every time. 

Joshua has surgery Monday. Beginning Monday, Joshua will be on the road to a new life. A new start. New abilities. New family. An outpouring of love. God makes everything new for a reason. 

Praise God for a new addition to the Martin family. Praise God for one less orphan. Praise God for the many other families who are inspired to follow the command of James 1:27. I can't wait for the day when I'm able to answer the calling. Mom has already said her grandchildren will look like the UN. (Haha) :D

Glory to God who is able to do infinitely more than we could ask or think. 

Please be praying for wisdom and prudence of the doctors, for Sonia and John and the rest of the Martins' patience, and for Joshua's heart. 

God bless,
