Meet our new Habitat for Humanity
family, Michael and Waldrena Robinson and two
year-old, Amaya. They are so excited about getting a
home that Waldrena wrote a poem and I have the
privilege of sharing it with you.
“How do we say Thank You”
Written by: Waldrena

How do we say thank you for
the opportunity that happens once in a lifetime.
That we were given something
that isn’t just an image stored in the back of our
mind.
That he would place it right
in our reach.
In our hands……..as he
instructed us to hold on tightly.
Tightly on to the word God had
spoken some time before.
How he would use someone to
bring this blessing forth.
The blessing of our very own
home that no one could ever take away.
A place for our daughter to
grow up and play.
Not having to worry that the
rent will continue to soar.
That the everything we wanted
we have been given and more.
A place where we too will have
a chance to help build.
A solid foundation that will
stand throughout every passing year.
How God knew just when to wipe
away our tears.
As he touched the hearts of
all of you here.
A savior that has been there
for our every beacon call. To be the shepherd for us
all.
It’s amazing that out of
everyone in our family he chose us to be the ones to
break the chains of what others thought could never
be.
How we will be a light to show
others how faithfulness has always been the key.
The key to unlock everything
God wants you to have and then some.
Thank you Habitat and our
Sponsors for being the one.
The one God will use to bless
our family, and we continue to be the ones to look
back and help others achieve their dreams.
If he did it for us………he’d do
the same for you, just hold on to God as he carries
you through.
Again how can we say thank you
for all you do.
Love always,
The Robinson Family
THE EXCITEMENT IS DEFINITELY
BUILDING!!!
