A Week Later

It's been just over a week since our children left our home.

It has not been an easy week.

Like with so many other things, Andrew and I are complete opposites when it comes to how we grieve and attempt to move on.

I'm thankful God has allowed us to be aware of this fact.  Despite our differences we've been able to grieve together rather than pulling apart from each other.

We started this journey last fall and so many people have joined us in prayer along the way.

People we know, people we've only met a few times, and people we've never met.

They have carried us through each day with their prayers.

They have stood in the gap for us.

Their prayers, your prayers, are the only way we've made it through the past week.

Thank you.

We still have rough moments.

We still shed tears.

But God is healing our hearts.

He has been faithful to remind us that He is with us.

Always.

He called us to adoption and we obeyed.

It may not have ended the way we hoped, but He is still in control.

God is on the throne.
