Anyone you have ever been on the adoption journey knows there are always bumps in the road.
Today we just hit our first, and I am sure not our last. Anything can happen until the day of finalization. So do I not talk about the twins in fear of them not becoming ours? Do I not attach myself to them and give them names in fear that something will happen to prevent this adoption? Do I not share my journey because sometimes adoptions don't happen?
My answer: I will lean on The Lord. I will pray for my twins. I will attach to them. I will share my journey. No matter what the outcome is. I trust in my God. I may not always understand his ways or desires his ways but his ways are always the Best for me.
So I sit here in prayer. I can't go into details about what is going on but we were asked "how comfortable are you with moving forward with this birthmom?" All I can do is pray and believe in the truths that God has placed on me. First and foremost, there is nothing of this world that can ever be as rewarding, as joyful, as amazing as being called a daughter of the King. No husband, no child, no money can ever fill me the way the Lord touches my heart. I will stand on that truth.
I will stand on the truth that the Lord will never leave me nor forsake me. He goes before me always. If God is for me, who can be against.
I pray that this bump in the road gets resolved and I pray for it to be quickly. I pray for the birthmom that the Lord fills her with strength and courage. I pray that this doesn't derail the adoption and that the twins will be in our arms in 3 months. I pray that Jason and I stand united as one in prayer, asking for peace, patience, and love. I pray for the health of these beautiful baby boys that God is knitting together in the womb. I pray that they will be warriors for our God.
Will you stand with me in prayer?
