I love the how God works things together. Eight years ago this week, we were in Korea meeting our newest son and getting ready to bring him home. At the time, I don't think we even gave a thought to the fact that we were adopting our son during National Adoption Month (I know that I didn't!). We were just super excited to receive that call. Those who have adopted know what call I am talking about. The call that says come and get your son/daughter. Your life will never be the same. Nor would you have it any other way!
Adoption has blessed our family in many ways. It added our son to our family. We met some wonderful people and families. We travelled to a land we NEVER thought we would see. It was during this time that we realized just how big our God is.
Please consider adoption for your family. You will be blessed in more ways than you can count!
"I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you." John 14:18
"Learn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow." Isaiah 1:17
"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." James 1:27
Blessings,
"So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God"
1 Corinthians 10:31
Thank you for the encouraging thoughts on adoption. I hope God continues to bless and work in your family because you have adopted.
