Amazing Love
So we are only a week away from our court date! Can't wait to hear some good news next week! As we wait I am just humbled by all God is doing in our lives. I am working hard on enjoying the journey and not getting caught up in the difficulty of the wait. Adoption has changed our lives already in so may ways. We are totally dependent on the holy spirit to work in our lives. We need him to help us grow spiritually, to keep our boys safe, to help our adoption process go smoothly, and to change us. I just love how this process has MADE me dependent on Christ for everything. I am constantly praying for our adoption case, for other cases and for him to help me be more patient, more loving, more kind, more compassionate. We are also humbled at how God is just showing up and taking care of things. Our initial concern when we decided to take the plunge of faith and say YES to adopting three boys was the additional stuff we would need. Three more beds, lots of clothes, coats, shoes, etc. But God knows! And he just shows up. We were so blessed to receive 2 twin beds and a dresser FREE from some amazing friends! God took care of it! And we are receiving clothes often from friends and family. HE is taking care of it! It is amazing to sit back and watch his love pour out on our journey. And a huge thank you to all of those who are blessing us with stuff or praying for us! We would so value prayers that we pass court next week and that we have a successful 30 day waiting period. Living, Loving and Serving an Incredible God!!!

Hi Vicki,
ReplyDeleteI was so thrilled to find your blog. We too have three children and we too are pursuing three siblings from DRC with LBB! We switched from Ethiopia to DRC (as well as switching agencies) when we found our girls on the waiting child list; we knew they were ours! We have three boys and are adopting three girls. I would love to hear more about your process since we are just a step behind you! Praying for favor on your court date!
Blessings,
Audrey
