This lesson learned keeps repeating itself over and over on
our path through adoption.... Why does it keep repeating?? The answer is
simple:
I have such small faith. I let my eyes look upon the amount
need to adopt our boys and allow it to overwhelm me and think, "There is
NO WAY we can afford this!" And
there in the mist of that sentence is found the problem, "we".
"We" can't afford it, but you know who can? The
creator of the earth, the creator of the universe, the everlasting Father to
the fatherless, the Almighty, the I AM, the Provider, the healer, the one who
wrapped Himself in flesh to take our brokenness upon Himself to make us
complete and right with Him! How can I ever doubt that His plan cannot succeed without
"my" help? Who am I?
Adoption Journey lesson #1, If God has a plan that has been
established since before time began, then He will make it happen even when the
world and His people He created sees it as impossible!Gary's adoption- $35,000-paid in full
Willy's adoption- 12,720.00- amount funded- $12,025.00 Amount left- $695.00
Am I afraid we are not going to meet the full amount...
Nope!! God's got this, He always has!
To God be the glory, great things He has done;
So loved He the world that He gave us His Son,
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,
And opened the life gate that all may go in.
So loved He the world that He gave us His Son,
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,
And opened the life gate that all may go in.
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father, through Jesus the Son,
And give Him the glory, great things He has done.
Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father, through Jesus the Son,
And give Him the glory, great things He has done.
O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,
To every believer the promise of God;
The vilest offender who truly believes,
That moment from Jesus a pardon receives.
To every believer the promise of God;

Great things He has taught us, great things He has done,
And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;
But purer, and higher, and greater will be
Our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see.
And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;
