Two Years


Adan has now been missing for two years. It doesn't get any easier and we don't miss him any less. In some ways it may be more difficult because we feel as though we must try to go on with our lives some how, it is hard to be in limbo for so long. I don't think that anyone can understand what our lives are like unless they have a missing loved one. People understand death because most everyone has lost someone close to them, but in some ways I think death might be easier and yet we have hope. If he is not alive there is the hope of heaven, but we hope he is alive and we will be a family again.

We are still believing that God is in control and He will restore our family. We hope it is soon. We love our husband and father so much and would love to know for sure that he is alive and well, but we will continue to have faith and trust the Lord of all creation and the God of our hope in all this.

I don't know how anyone lives without the hope that comes with the Christian life and walk with the Lord. If anyone reading this doesn't know the Lord (isn't born-again), I hope they will visit www.NeedGod.com to learn who the Savior is and why they need Him. I am sure that we would not have made it this far in our current journey without the assurance that our God is with us. He gives us the grace and hope and love and desire to go on with living. This life is but a vapor, but eternity is forever.


Be strong and let your heart take courage, all you who wait for and hope for and expect the Lord! Psalm 31:24

Behold, the Lord's eye is upon those who fear Him [who revere and worship Him with awe], who wait for Him and hope in His mercy and loving-kindness, Psalm 33:18

For in You, O Lord, do I hope; You will answer, O Lord my God. Psalm 38:15

But I will hope continually, and will praise You yet more and more. Psalm 71:14

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. Psalm 30:5
