Dearly Beloved,

I’m so very grateful for all of your prayers, concern and responsiveness. There has been “no sure leads as to the wereabouts of my neice yet.” as quoted by the Fort Bend County Sherrif’s Dept. However we do know the best Lead. Our omniscient Father. Please keep standing with us in this. Though time has passed and things seem unsure with no clue we know that God knows.

On last Friday there was another scripture echoed into my heart.

“Shall I bring to the [moment of] birth and not cause to bring forth? says the Lord. Shall I Who causes to bring forth shut the womb? says your God”-Is. 66:9

Though, in context this scripture may have nothing to do with our situation the application to me is sure: The thing that God started He will finish. Through this whole situation I know that God is birthing His purposes into all those who are touched by this and that is my prayer. And even though crisis, testing and shaking may come, when God gives us an eternal perspective of situations we may seem to the world to be less caring but one thing we are is more sure. Of God. He alone is unchanging and those who do His will shall alone abide forever.

On Sunday Night I discovered that the Sherrif’s Dept. had called off the search because there were, “no sure leads” but I know that the One who “searches all things” has not forsaken us.

” for the [Holy] Spirit searches diligently, exploring and examining everything, even sounding the profound and bottomless things of God [the divine counsels and things hidden and beyond man’s scrutiny].”-I Cor. 2:10

And now by grace we stand knowing that God is working all of this together for our good and His Glory. Thank you for continuing to stand with us before God. God bless
