On New Year's Eve day 2007 a phone call was made to a woman who had dealt with the same feelings that her son had. Now they were going to 'talk' to one another for the first time. Can we really know how each one of them feel? We can try. It is a spectacular thing to hear a 79 year old woman say that she feels she can "die happy" now. This as a comment to finally talking with her long lost son whom she gave birth to. The son welled up with tears as he heard her tell him, "I loved you and did not want to give you away, but I had to... my parents made me. They said you deserved a better life." He only heard one word. LOVED you!!! And she continued by saying she had always loved him; thought of him always and on each birthday she'd say, "I hope you are alright; I hope you are well; I hope you didn't have to go to war." I am glad God sends His very special surprises the way that he does. Though I began this search for her, I had no idea to what depths this Answer would come. So far we know Sadie is 5' 5", is eloquent in her speech, adores her other children and grandchildren, and wants to meet her son and family. What a magnificent day it was. I am ever so grateful to Martha for helping to find Sadie for her son. {January 3, 2008}
God indeed has done more than we could even ask or think! Eph 3:20 "Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.."
