About Me
- The Pence family
- Virginia, United States
- We are a family of five, soon to be a family of six!!!! We have a beautiful 8 year old daughter, and two very energetic boys,(6 and 3). We had a beautiful baby girl in Vietnam. We loved her and fought for her for a year, until we lost her. Now we are trying to find out where our new daughter is.
Roamans 8:15"For you have not received the Spirit of bondage again to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, ABBA, Father."
2Corinthinas 1:3-4"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Compassion and the God of all comforts, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort that we ourselves have received from God."
Matthew 18:5"And whosoever welcomes a child like this in my name welcomes me."
Isaiah 55:8-9"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. As the heavens are higher that the earth so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."
Proverbs 16:9"In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps."
James 2:27"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is these: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."This verse recently has really spoken to me:
Matthew 25 :34-40"Then the king will say to those on his right ,'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me. Then the righteous will answer him, Lord When did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go visit you?The KING will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these, you did it for me."
2Corinthinas 1:3-4"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Compassion and the God of all comforts, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort that we ourselves have received from God."
Matthew 18:5"And whosoever welcomes a child like this in my name welcomes me."

Thinking of Maya today...
Karen
You are in our thoughts and prayers today as you spend Mya's 1st birthday apart. It is so hard to understand why it is this way, but you are glorifying God by trusting in Him in these heartbreaking times.
I am so sorry that you are not with this precious child on this special day. I have been following your blog and praying for your family for a while now. What sad news you have gotten. I have also lost a referral of a baby girl from Ho Chi Minh City. Our situations are different..but the hurt is the same I am sure. I will continue to pray for you and for that beautiful baby!
Take care,
Tonya
