Happy David Day!

A year ago today, our family was in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, The People's Republic of China to meet our beloved son and brother, Wu Yue He.  He was 2 1/2.

God, in His amazing providence, purposed David for our family and ordered each and every step to bring him safely home to us.  We praise Him for His wondeful works of redemption and the power of the gospel as witnessed in the adoption of an orphaned child.  For spiritually speaking, that is our condition without Christ!  How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called the children of God. (1 John 3:1)

It was Thanksgiving Day 2009 that this photograph captured my heart.
His reported long wait for a family on a special needs list broke my heart.  God is so good.



David's Gotcha Day was such a wonderful and most anticipated day.  And it was a spectacular blessing to be there as a whole family, with my father, too.  Little David was so brave.  So trusting.  So loving!

This video captures our first meeting and a bit of our time together in David's homeland.
NOTE:  It is best viewed as is and not full screen. It gets a bit blurry.






To God be the glory - great things He has done.

We love you sweet David Wu Achterkirch.
You are treasured and adored.
Loved by God and your family.
Now and forever!!!
