I've had better...

...days that is!

Denied one more time from another grant agency. That makes 3.

Found out that it could be FALL before we even have a referral.

It's days like this that I wonder if we're really supposed to be doing this. Like "wouldn't God give us everything we need if this is His will for our lives?"...

...but then I remember that nobody said that this would be easy...

...and that this test of our faith and patience will all be worth it...

...and we'll be able to praise Him for providing for us in every way during this journey...


"Adoption is not for the faint of heart"...I can't tell you how many times I have read/heard this over the last 2 years. Sure, I believed it...but now I'm living it.

My friend, Emily, sent me this verse today.

1 Corinthians 15:58 (The Message)
With all this going for us, my dear, dear friends, stand your ground. And don't hold back. Throw yourselves into the work of the Master, confident that nothing you do for him is a waste of time or effort.

So we continue to be patient, and long for the day that we get the email that will change our family!

We covet your prayers!
