Need some prayer.

I am feeling a little discouraged today.  I find myself wishing that this process was not so difficult. 

 

Wishing that we did not have to come up with all of the money we need to come up with. 

 

Wishing we could adopt as many kids as we wanted without even considering money. 

 

Wishing the system worked better that it did not take a year+ to get our babies home.

 

All of this wishing does me no good.  Bottom line is we live in a fallen world and nobody said adoption would be easy.  No matter how difficult or hard it gets, God IS bigger and has it under control.

 

We need prayer for God's financial provision.  We are praying specifically that work will pick up for Gavin and we will get approved for both of the grants we applied for.

 

We need prayer for peace and comfort even when we do not understand why it has to be so hard.

Joshua 1:9
This is my command - be strong and courageous!  Do not be afraid or discouraged.  For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.
