Chovy-

Good luck with your agency choice and efforts to adopt. Children are one of God’s greatest gifts.

Last night, as we were driving, our 11yo (our oldest daughter from China) and my wife were talking about a bird that had flown into the sanctuary of our church. I listened as my wife told our dd that the bird reminded her about how God had told her where our daughter was.

The bird was flying up in the cupola at the top of the church, where it could see the outside, but couldn’t get through the glass.

Many years ago, dw had been reading one of the “Chicken Soup” books. During this time she had been praying, and asking God, “With my infertility, how will I ever get a daughter Lord?”

Then she read the story of a fly, dead on a windowsill. The fly kept trying to fly out the window, because it too could see outside, through the glass. All the while, across the room, the door was wide open.

When she had read this (still relating the story to our daughter), she said that she heard God’s voice telling her, “Your daughter is in an orphanage”.

An invisible red thread
connects those who are
destined to meet
regardless of time,
place or circumstance.
The thread may
stretch or tangle
but it will never break.


Chovy-
I have no doubt that God will help you find your child, just as He has us. My advice to you is to be still, and listen to what HE has to say. *And keep an eye out for that open door… *😃

Father, please watch over Chovy and her husband, and guide them with Your grace to the child You have chosen for them. In name of Your son Jesus I pray.
Amen
 
I just wanted to update anyone who looked at my previous post and who may be curious about where God has led us.

After much prayer and thought, we’ve found a domestic adoption agency that we think meets our needs and we are working towards a domestic infant/young child adoption. I requested their paperwork this morning and we will be starting the application process asap. I really appreciated everyone’s prayers as we discerned God’s plan for us and if you have a spare moment for us in prayer please remember us as we wait for a placement.
Keeping your placement hopes in daily prayer…
