Seven months!

Seven months waiting for our precious gift(s) from God!

It sound like our agency is processing around five referrals a month. We are around 40 in line. So if things keep going at this pace we have about 7 more months of waiting. I can't imagine this getting any easier, so with the strength and grace of God we are thankful for each day! God has surrounded us with amazing family and friends to encourage us and hold us up!

Thank you Lord!

Lord, we are thankful for the time you have given us! Lord help us! Remind us to take each day as the precious gift it is! Thank you Lord for loving us with your unconditional Love! Lord thank you for believing in us when we do not believe in ourselves!

Amen !!

Month 6 has been hard! I have this feeling of discontent. I feel alone!  I know that I am not! I know that I am not the first person to feel like this or to go through these feelings. It's hard and nothing about this prosess is easy.

<sup>1 Peter 1:6-8

6</sup> In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. ⁷ These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. ⁸ Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy,
