On April 13, 2010 our family stepped out in obedience to Him and started this journey to fulfill God's call on our lives to take care of orphans. I attended my Tuesday night Bible Study that night like every other Tuesday determined not to leave until every question in my heart was answered about the adoption process and where to go by a new friend that God had lead into my life through this Bible study. She is a faithful believer and wonderful new friend whose family had themselves adopted internationally. As I approached her, she teared up a bit and said that she had been speaking to her husband all week about the prompting that God was laying on her heart to ask me if I had ever considered adoption before. This was confirmation in my mind that God was up to something big. This blog is a way for me to make known the GIGANTIC things He has done on this journey already! It is my prayer that He is made known through this blog and that His story is written all over our lives. Want to hear some more of the miraculous works of God in our life? Stay Tuned-there is $15,000 to come!!!
Dear Leslie, you are an inspiration!! thank you for opening this blog to share not only about the wonderful miracle of love through adoption but your great and obedience to our Lord and to others. I'm sure God will use this blog to bless many other lives and He uses you and your family.
ReplyDeleteGod bless you all and we will keep tuned to witness all the miracles and blessings that the Lord has for you.
When I read you were beginning adoption classes I had a smile on my face! As you know, four of our children are not biological . . . God had other plans!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for you, Sean and Emily!
