I am praying that whenever you are feeling lost or in a fog, that the Lord will bring peace to your heart and show you what His plan is for you. As I read your words, I was taken back to a time in my life when I felt I couldn't go on because of my own loss, if it were not for the presence of the Lord in my life. I pray He continues to hold you up in this difficult and confusing time. I, too, was SURE that God had orchestrated a specific child to be mine. It was not meant to be.<BR/><BR/>God can see the end from the beginning, and it is sometimes very hard to allow Him to lead us to a place we don't think is meant for us. He sees the big picture, while we are left seeing only what is in front of our eyes. I'm praying that one day very soon you will be in a position to have a glance at what He was up to right at this point in your life. Hang in there, and know that people are praying for you. <BR/>With love and BIG HUGS<BR/>JulieJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02112459241757353862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006548777892224031.post-64206226123812560732008-06-16T15:10:00.000-07:002008-06-16T15:10:00.000-07:00"I'm thinking this morning that maybe I gave up to..."I'm thinking this morning that maybe I gave up too soon... Maybe the Right Response would have been to hold onto the thought that Nothing is impossible for God. That this was merely a test of my faith and that if I had prayed hard enough, long enough, been good enough that maybe He would make a miracle for me."<BR/><BR/>Just want you to know these words touched my heart today. I'm walking through this moment too...though for completely different reasons. Just wanted you to know that I'm praying for peace in your journey and for the girls that the Lord intends for you to bring home.<BR/><BR/>You should update more often :)Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05854999345315958520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006548777892224031.post-40402332602895857562008-06-09T15:39:00.001-07:002008-06-09T15:39:00.001-07:00Linda,Every emotion you have written about is what...Linda,<BR/>Every emotion you have written about is what I have been feeling too. I have prayed for the same things, healing and direction. One day I think I have it and the next day I'm lost. I do a few more things to move my adoption forward and then I find myself holding back for a week, questioning it all again. Thank you for sharing your feelings. I will pray for you too.<BR/>(((HUGS)))<BR/>Amyamyl4https://www.blogger.com/profile/03808190509498537783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006548777892224031.post-3862261823710277482008-06-09T15:39:00.000-07:002008-06-09T15:39:00.000-07:00I wish I could reach through and give you a big hu...I wish I could reach through and give you a big hug. I hear the desperation in your post, and I know the love you feel for those little ones. Having someone say "no" isn't what any of us want to hear, and leaving them in the hands of strangers and being able to go on and do anything is hard. Unfortunately, I know. God will bless you through your trials. He didn't want to go to the cross and suffer, but through it we gained salvation. Our tribulations will work to His gain, I'm sure they will. I hope your week improves, your kids will "wake you up" to what there is today, and you'll be able to see the great things that He is doing in spite of that loss.
