KEEP THE CANDLE BURNING . . .

Yesterday and today, I was blessed when I went to our mailbox and found simple envelopes addressed "FOR KRISTINA." They both had encouraging notes, cash and checks. I find myself in awe of our Lord, and trying to wrap my mind around the fact that He can pull this off, and save this young lady, and make her a part of our family if it is His will. I also have been able to learn little bits and pieces about Kristina, and these emails help us feel like we are getting to know her. She wants to learn many languages and be an interpreter when she grows up. I just want to say thank you for all your encouragement and love. Please go to the bottom of this link and become a follower. We want to know who is bringing her home with us. You are all her family!


Our prayer for Kristina, and all those trying to help us bring her home.

You think your alone there in your silent storm,
but I've seen the tears you've cried,
falling down and trying to drown
the flame of hope inside . . .

Let me tell you now, let me tell you now

When you're walking in the dead of night,
when your soul is churning,
When your hope seems out of sight,
keep the candle burning.
All it takes in one steady heart,
In a world that's turning
Shine the light and pierce the dark,
Keep the candle burning.
Keep the candle burning.

When you're down and your discouraged,
when the darkness clouds your view
you've got to gather up your courage
You know the Lord is going to see you through

When you're walking in the dead of night,
when your soul is churning,
When your hope seems out of sight,
keep the candle burning.
All it takes in one steady heart,
In a world that's turning
Shine the light and pierce the dark,
Keep the candle burning.
Keep the candle burning.

One ray of light always breaks through,
follow wherever He takes you, wherever He takes you!

When you're walking in the dead of night,
when your soul is churning,
When your hope seems out of sight,
keep the candle burning.
All it takes in one steady heart,
In a world that's turning
Shine the light and pierce the dark,
Keep the candle burning.
Keep the candle burning.
