God Never Ceases to Amaze Me

God has continued to amaze me in our adoption journey. Even in the times that I'm feeling frustrated & down about how this process goes, I know that this is what we are called to do. No one said this would be easy & we now see that for ourselves. But we move forward to seek His will & to learn what He is trying to teach us. Every now & then, it's nice to get that solid confirmation that we are actually following His call. With the attacks of some financial issues a while back, I had to work hard to not let that cause me to really doubt what we are doing. In fact, it caused us to lean on God more. We knew that by ourselves alone, we could not come up with the money to complete this adoption. Even though we are still not fully at our goal, we are several steps closer with the help of 3 grant organizations. We have now blessed by these 3 grants to get us closer to bringing our child home. We so appreciate all the hard work that they put into raising money to help adoptive families bring their children home. We all hate that adoption has to cost so much but it does so we just have to find a way to do it. These organizations raise awareness for the need for adoptive families & help overcome the financial barriers that arise because of the high costs. The 3 that we have been blessed by are the Micah Fund, Katelyn's Fund, & Elijah's Truth. We thank them from the bottom of our hearts & feel so humbled to be blessed by the financial support. Brian & I have a larger vision in the future of being able to help adoptive families & these organizations through various personal fundraisers & we hope that we can we "pay it forward"!
