A new friend lent us a book called China Lamb and it has been a true inspiration to us. It is an amazing story of faith and the Lord has been using it to speak to my heart these past few days. When Sandra, the author of this book, was first told that she was to adopt from the Lord, like me, she was taken aback and thought it was just crazy. However, she quickly "opened . . . [herself] up to the realization that God could have chosen anyone else on Earth for this mission, but he was choosing . . . [her]" (Moats, 2006). I feel the same way about our own adoption journey and am so thankful that the Lord is faithful to continually confirm, in the midst of my doubts and disbelief, at times, that he chose us specifically for this mission because he has faith that we are the right parent's/family for these two little girls!
Update:
We are still waiting to hear about our approval. I got an email from the agency and we should begin the interview process in the next 3-5 business days. Praying for good news and no hiccups with this first part of the process!
