I was just curious, what is the name of the "adoption agency that didn't have all the red tapes that most agencies have." We are looking at Catholic Charities or Jewish Family Services. BTW - we live in Murfreesboro!Angelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12534438722242509309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4086824920225218836.post-86890884259919331452010-08-11T18:23:20.173-07:002010-08-11T18:23:20.173-07:00Thank you Jennifer for your kind and encouraging w...Thank you Jennifer for your kind and encouraging words.

God is true to His promises. I first became aware of the verse when I was going through my divorce-quite an agonizing time as well. God has shown me some amazing things through the painful journey and has blessed me beyond my wildest imagination. He knows the desires of your heart and he promises to give them to you if you seek Him first. My best friend in the world went through the same journey as you and had the same thoughts, feelings, and disappointment. During that time, God reminded me of the story of Abraham and Sarah about how much she desired to have a child. God fulfilled his promise to them (albeit after much time went by). After a couple of failed invitro procedures, and a failed adoption attempt, she and her husband adopted a son! I can't wait to see how God works out this miracle for you and your husband so you can see that His promises are real and meant for you too. Many prayers abound for you and Lee.

Trust me, this is coming from one of the biggest control freaks God has put on this earth. But one of the things I am figuring out is, when an earthly human takes so much control of things, the entire WORLD starts leaning on you and relying on you to make it happen. It gets rough and all of a sudden the stress and the failure of others to cooperate makes life miserable.<br /><br />Really-let go and let God.

Always remember that when curcumstances seem to be spinning out of control or become overwhelming, it is essential to believe that God knows what he is doing. He orchestrates every event of your life - including sadness and disappointment. Your greatest challenge is to keep trusting him. Know that he wants you to be happy and he loves you beyond your comprehension. Where there is sadness, he brings joy. Your faith will sustain you. And when that precious child is placed into your arms and your heart, you will feel his presence and your heart will leap with joy!!!Delta girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00065696643538938105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4086824920225218836.post-34398882587177088202010-08-08T21:21:46.468-07:002010-08-08T21:21:46.468-07:00I love it when God's plan finally unfolds and ...I love it when God's plan finally unfolds and we understand what was in the making the whole time.
