"He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it to life eternal. If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also; if anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him." John 12:25-26
I(Michelle) continue to surrender my desires, my wants to the Lord alone. Follow Him where He calls us to go, follow Him in where He calls us to sacrifice. To be where He is working, as His servants. I surrender my desires of a "comfortable" life, a good team/work environment, safety, "comfortable" life for my kids, being near to family, a larger home for our family, my desires for adoption, and freedom to homeschool. I pray my desires will always be the Lord's desires for us, for our family.
It has been a long journey over the past 5 years of prayer and waiting upon the Lord in the passion He has put upon our hearts to adopt. As many of you know, after 3.5 years of desiring to adopt from Ethiopia the Lord redirected our steps and our hearts to India. To help others know more of our story of adopting we posted some of the process we have been through these past years and the process we are in now...hope you enjoy and this journey brings all glory to our God!
"And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God." Micah 6:8
