Hope…

I love this song.

Everyone knows there is pain in this life.
We've all seen our share of tears,
But I choose to live on the positive side
And I won't be held hostage by fear.

I'm a prisoner of hope, bound by my faith,
Chained to Your love, locked up in Grace,
I'm free to leave, but I'll never go,
I'm wonderfully, willingly, freely
A prisoner of hope.

Some people doubt what they don't understand,
But I know what's true in my heart,
Now I can't control what's out of my hands,
But I can lay back in Your arms.

I'm a prisoner of hope, bound by my faith,
Chained to Your love, locked up in Grace,
I'm free to leave, but I'll never go,
I'm wonderfully, willingly, freely
A prisoner of hope.

With that… 

AND the fact that I have the best friends in the whole wide world, as evidenced by one of them coming to my house bearing comfort food yesterday and just hanging out for awhile……

Not to mention, all you guys who are sending happy thoughts and prayers…

And not listed in order of importance, but the way God’s been answering our prayers thus far…

I feel better today. 

But don’t stop praying.  ;-)  It’s not over yet.

PS…it’s a family situation, but not about the kids or foster care (thank God).

PPS to the Parents and Inlaws and anyone else who cares (or not…LOL)…I will get to the pictures from vacation as soon as possible.  I’m on task overload right now.  Speaking of said tasks, I gotta run.  But I WILL GET TO IT.  SOON.
