Divine Calculations

So many appointments
and papers to track down,
so much of our income
going all over town.

What drove us to these measures
when we could just sit back?
Why go through all the trouble
when there are other things we lack?

Yet every penny spent
gives me an overwhelming joy,
to know that God provided it
all for an orphan girl and boy.

I gaze upon their picture
every morning as I pray.
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
at how He's paved the way.

Sure, there have been some struggles,
surprising curves along our road,
but with our Divine compass,
the right direction always showed.

We haven't lacked a penny
to complete this paper chase.
We've never lacked direction
to make it through this maze.

God has given me such confidence,

knowing it's HIS timeline that counts.
He's provided all we've needed,
so who am I to have my doubts?

I know He brought these children
so clearly to our path.
It's all a matter of faith,
letting God do all the math.
