By Faith Not By Sight

We are a family that loves God and loves each other. Our family is built through, and so blessed by adoption. As a family we are lead to pray for the children who remain orphans with no family to call their own, no mom and dad to take care of them. When one face began to repeatedly appear to us, and many things kept connecting us to one little boy, we began to look closer at this one child in an orphanage in China. We began to listen to our hearts and pray harder. Fast forward to a year later. Our Pastor is teaching on circle prayers. Calling us to move to a higher level in our prayer life and faith. Bold prayers, "circle prayers", prayers that call us to step out in faith, without giving up. Pressing in to the heart of God. So circle prayers are what we are praying, for God to lead us and provide a way for us to bring this little boy home.

I had my first moment of feeling totally overwhelmed with the paperwork today. It's funny how you forget how difficult the paperwork can be after your child is home. But Betty from FTIA actually sensed my frustration in an email, and called to rescue me. How cool is that! She walked me through the steps and made it all manageable again. So we are back on track. Please keep those prayers coming as I am trying to make my way around this whole internet thing learning how to do a blog, set up fundraisers, and do a lot of paperwork! Just have to keep focused on that precious face that has brought us here.
