It is so true, so many times we have started so many things and they turned out to be different. I always see myself trying to make sense of having a child with such a rare genetic condition: I can see that I am so different from I was 8 years agos, I can see my family so different from it was 8 years ago… Somehow, honestly talking, all the members of my family have scars and some “new” wounds… I don’t know how our lives will be in 30 years or so, how far my daughter will get, but I know that for now, we have to accomodate our lives to fit in her life… It’s not what we planned, but this is the way it is…God is in control, and You and I will understand it in heaven… I can’t wait I’ll keep praying for all of you and Carmencita

I hope it’s okay for a long-time lurker to post a comment. Sunday (the 8th) was Orphan Sunday, and SCC (along with Dennis Rainey, Geof Moore, Jim Daly and others) performed during a 2-hour simulcast live from Nashville. It was a wonderful, beautiful service! I think it will be available online by this weekend. Check http://www.orphansunday.org for updates — I think you would enjoy it (and it may help pass 2 more hours of “couch time” as you wait on baby Hope).
Blessings,
Heather

Beautiful! I got to hear SCC at the Women of Faith conference in Greensboro on Friday night–what a blessing! He always strikes me as so genuine–he shares his struggles without pretending that everything is fine–and his reliance on the Grace of God each day is an inspiration.

Also, before that concert I couldn’t bear to listen to the song “Cinderella,” because it was too sad to me–but he said that the song was never intended to be about death, but about taking advantage of every opportunity, every moment with our children. So now I listen to it as a beautiful reminder.

WOW! That got me crying, but what a comfort it was to hear that song today. I know so many of us tell you how much of an inspiration you are, but I must say it again. Your perspective amazes me. Your faith is obviously built on the “Rock” as no matter what storms life brings you remain firm and steadfast with your faith in God unwavering. You are such a blessing to me Lana. God is using you in mighty ways – and all from a couch!!
