Very Touching

Today our church held its annual Easter Egg Festival, and as always, J and I signed up to work. While I was talking to a friend a lady from our MOPS (Mothers of Pre-Schoolers) Group walked up to me and asked me how our meeting went. I was surprised that she knew about it, but I told her that it went really well, and then she said (and this gives me chills), "We pray for you and J every week at our Bible study." I wanted to cry, but all I could do was thank her and tell her how much it meant that they were praying. MW mentioned our HS meetings one week, and now they are praying for us as we're going through our adoption journey. That just means so much because I don't really know these ladies all that well. I've met a few of them because last year I was a MOPS child care worker and kept their kids while they met, but this year I didn't do it because it was just too hard emotionally. I just can't tell you how much it means to have people praying for us. And to know that people that we don't know all that well are praying just blesses my heart so much.

Because of this conversation today, I feel the need to tell you all that I pray for each and every one of you, my precious blogging buddies. Many times it's as a whole, but when I know of a specific request I do lift you up in prayer individually. I also know that I have several readers that are not the praying type, and that's okay, and I respect that you don't feel the same way I do, but I just know how much it blessed my heart to hear that we were being prayed for, so I wanted to pass this along in hopes that your hearts are blessed as well.
