The journey begins

Well today we are offically starting the journey to adoption. I am not a blogger but God has led me to involve others during this time. I am a very private person but i know God wants to use us and make us a part of his story. I thought God and I had agreed on the future plans for our family. I mean we have two children, a nice house, jobs, and we seemed to be on the same sheet of music. Well was I wrong. God began really convicting me about adoption over fall break. I taked to Luther and little did I know God had been convicting him also. I was pretty aggrevated at first because i just turned 40 in September & I thought we were finished with children of our own. Well after the shock, I have found myself feeling excited at what God wants to do. In the Spring of this year I read "Radical" by David Platt. Wow... It really convicted me on a lot of levels but the biggest was not putting God in my own little box but to let my heart break for what breaks his. I know that this will be a journey of faith with a lot of stress, growth, and joy. I ask that you would consider praying for us while we are on this adventure!!
