2911

Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."


Many of you know that we moved into a new house just a few weeks ago. I never made the connection, until I was giving a friend our address on Saturday, and he said "that is so cool". After he said Jeremiah, I got goose bumps because our house number is 2911.


Our family definitely felt the closing of a chapter in our family's life when we left the home we had lived in for nine years to move to this one. We knew a big part of the chapter at this new house will be the little ones we adopt to fill it.

I feel like this is now our "family verse". It is for us now and for those we will bring home in the future.
