My husband and I have wanted to adopt for a long time but the timing of it has never really worked out until a recently my husband and I got to talking and I asked him if he would ever consider adopting a special needs child who might need to live with us the rest of their lives. Up until this point he had not felt comfortable with that idea, this time when I asked him he said the Holy Spirit must be doing something in his heart because he felt like that was something he would consider. I joined several advocacy groups on Facebook and told a few friends excitedly that someday we would be adopting, but it would still be a while. Then I saw someone's post about Lily and read the blog about her and I shared about Lily and how kids like her need a home and maybe we should consider if now was the time God was calling us to adopt. After sharing about Lily with my husband he read about her and knew almost immediately that she was meant to be our daughter. So I contacted the woman about Lily and we talked back and forth a good bit, and there was God affirming and giving peace that Lily was meant to be our daughter. We both believe that what the Bible says is true when it says that God knew us before the foundations of the earth. If that is the case then we know that He ordained all of this perfectly in His timing and that at just the right time we would come to be her parents. So here we are now completely clueless about the international adoption world and trusting God's leading to go get our daughter. Both of us are excited and already planning what life will be like when she gets here. Thank you for all your support and to all of you that choose to give financially, thank you so much!
