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.

Great news for a friend!

The funniest and most amazing thing happened today. Last night I was thinking about a family that I have been in contact with because they are in the process of adopting a little girl that is with Quan in the same orphanage. I haven't emailed in months and thought I should today. Her adoption has been involved and they have been waiting a very long time. Her dad is the man that has met Quan and sent me the wonderful pictures of him smiling and happy. (The only pictures of him smiling and happy) I sent the email and to my surprise got a response that they were leaving for the airport on their way to China to bring their daughter home!!! I am so excited for them! What a wonderful surprise! And he told me that he will be sure to give Quan a hug and a kiss and assure him that he has a family and we will be coming for him too. In a few days he will be with his daughter, and also will see my son!!! I am beyond excited for them. It's a great day.
