Well I knew there would be questions along the way but I didn't anticipate this particular question. Where should we adopt from? We thought it was so cut and dry with the international adoption. Then the adoption process through the State was presented in a different light so now it's like- What are we supposed to do???
Of course ,I want it to just happen....like tomorrow....but I know that's not possible. Even a normal "pregnancy" takes 9 months! Somehow I wish there was a little book with the plan laid out nice and neat for us. That our little "angel" was here and that we had to do this and this and this and then go get her. Not so easy. Boy, does God know how to really try and test your faith your ability to completly trust in Him alone. We are hanging out here on a limb and it just seems like we are uncertain now. I don't want to be like Sarah and take it over and go out and mess things all up! I'm not going to do that...I'm not going to take it over. I wish that He would just send us a bright flashing neon sign saying this is the way your to go....why can't he do that? No really, we know it will all be revealed. We've waited 6 years to do this, so what's a little more time in making sure we are doing His will.....
God is good.
For those of you that may read this. Please pray for us as we begin this journey.
Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
God please let us wait for you. May we wait for you, then soar to the heights that you have waiting for us. Give us strength for the day that you say the time is now. Let us walk by your side and know that you are our strength. For you alone are Almighty.
