DAY ONE

Today marks the 1st day of our family's journey to seek the Face and Wisdom of our GOD.  As our church begins a 21 day fast we feel led to fast and pray to hear the will of God in the matter of adopting.  We have SOOOOO many questions!
  • Should we adopt?
  • From where? U.S. or Overseas?
  • Boy or Girl?
  • How old?
  • Special Needs?
  • How would we pay for it?
  • Sibling group?
  • And so many more questions.....
Our life has been a bundle of changes for the past year as God first told us he was going to gather us under his wings and move our family to Illinois.  But how we love to hear his voice because it's only at that point, when we know we are doing what he wishes, that we can have peace.  And so here we are.  Day one.

"He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.Ps. 91:4

  2. Candie,

    Thank you for your honesty and humility. I will pray for God's leading for adoption during this time. If you would like to get together and talk about our adoption experience, I would love to! Praying for clear direction as you commit your ways unto Him!

    Grace & Peace,
    Teresa Davis

    1. Teresa, I love hearing adoption stories! I still cry when I tell Abbi's story. It's always amazing how God puts families together. Thanks for your prayers!
