What next...

As long as I can remember I've longed to adopt. I was single for so many years, I always imagined I would adopt and never have biological children. God surprised me, first with my amazing husband and then, with two precious babies. And yet, I still long to adopt. Recently, every time I turn around, I am faced with what seems to be God's mandate for the church, and our family, to care for the orphan.

So, here we are, wondering what is next. We're praying for, and pursuing, the opportunity to adopt. We don't know what God has in store for us, but our hearts thrill at the very thought of what He will do.
