It is quite humbling to ask for money. It is not something I take lightly. With every dollar handed to us to support this adoption, I am blessed beyond measure.
When we started this, I knew God was going to have to take our meeger means and grow them greatly. It would be no small feat to get to the amount of money needed to bring this little guy home, however, I have no doubt that He can do it. And I'm willing to do anything, just as I would for the three tucked in their beds (ok our bed) under our roof currently.
We are not in this for anything but to serve our mighty God. He has placed theses desires of our hearts to have a larger family, loud and fun, that seeks after Him. What greater gift to give our children than to expose them to this world? To give them a greater loving capacity for His heart. And the blessing in return? To watch this child grow and become a part of our family, and change us for the better.
We need $750 more to finish paying for the home study portion of our adoption. Then comes the grant writing portion. After the home study, we will need another $10-$15,000 more. That number seems in fathomable. But to Him who is able to do infinitely more than we ever dreamed or imagined be the glory.
Thank you, from the depths of my soul for your support in this journey. Your prayers and words of encouragement bless us daily.
