What gave me strength...

Beyond the love and support of family, friends, and prayer groups, I frequently remembered and read:

Isaiah 41:10 (New International Version)

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

I also believed that whatever God would bring me to, He'd bring me through. Oddly, the calendar quote for August 12th, the day we got the good news, read:

"God will never, never let us down if we have faith and put our trust in Him." ~ Mother Teresa

I will continue to call upon God for continued patience, strength, courage, understanding, good health, safety, expert guidance, and all that is truly important for myself, my children, Ralph, our family, our friends, and for those who are in the most need, but for now, I am going to thank Him and give Him praise!
