Bowser's Forever Home















A week ago, I was asked to pray for this handsome black lab, named Bowser. He desperately needed a new home. As our family joined in prayer, Sitka was led to post an article on his blog about him. As a result, Bowser found a new home.

I was initially a little nervous, because I did not personally know the family who wanted to adopt him and was not sure how he would fit. However, GOD had a perfect plan. He truly outdid HIMSELF on this one.

Doug and I drove from Richmond, Virginia to Spartanburg, South Carolina with Bowser and introduced him to his new parents. I am thankful for GOD's lead and also for a husband who so graciously joined in my efforts to place this dog.

I hope you will jump over to Sitka's blog: All God's Creatures and read about Bowser's new home.

Amazed by HIS grace,

Andrea
