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.

Love my children!

Just want to take a minute away from the stresses of the adoption finance crisis, and the upset of this election year, and my less than happy feelings about being from a very liberal state. Sorry, but that's the truth. They keep ripping my lawn signs down! Really?! I just want to look at the beautiful day, and love my hubby and kids. I love this picture from when we were at Finks Farm. That was before prayer walking through their Liam Strong corn maze. Joshua was in a bit of a rambunctious mood that day, so I was alternating, praying for Liam, praying for my sanity. I hate to admit it, but we cheated. We were just not getting out of there the correct way. Not that day anyway. I saw day light and went for it. Joshua was not happy with me. I love that Finks did this for such an awesome little guy. Keeping him in our prayers big time.
