If you've been following our journey, you know that we are trusting God fully for the finances (among other things, of course) for our adoption and though He's started to, He's not yet fully revealed the provision for our homestudy or agency fee yet, which are the two next milestones for us. It is so hard to wait and not know. In fact, for me, that's the hardest part of this entire process. Waiting, is hard enough. But, waiting and not knowing how in the WORLD this is all going to fall into place is nearly impossible for my little type-A brain. In fact, I woke up in a state of near panic this morning fearing: "What happens if AAI says: 'Okay, we're ready for you to start,' but we don't have the money yet ... what happens then???!!" So, I went to my Bible, opened it up and simply let my eyes fall. Where should they fall? Psalm 23:
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He m akes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me,
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overlows.
Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
