We all know and love that favorite Journey anthem... "Don't Stop Believin" Admit it, you crank up the volume when the chorus starts and belt it out like the rest of us!
The words "Don't stop believing" are words that have been my mantra throughout this process thus far. You have to keep your eyes on the finish line and believe with all of your heart that you can make it there.
It takes faith, determination, purpose, drive, courage and a giant helping of hope to adopt. I ask God every day to equip me with those tools. Patience is another trait in which I am very much lacking but through this I am slowly calming down and just waiting on His timing.
I still worry about the money...where is it coming from...how will we ever have enough? But He will provide so I need to use my patience and wait.
The gift from my husband for Christmas this year is a necklace with a couple of crosses and the word "Believe" and it serves as a reminder that if we believe God is faithful and just and humble ourselves to His will then He will make a way. He has not let me down yet....
So I will keep wearing this necklace and I will never stop believing that I will hold my baby in my arms soon.
I got the husband I cried to God for so many years ago after my last ugly break-up. I threw my hands up and told God I was done picking out men He was going to have to send me one because I was giving up. Two weeks later Kevin showed up, coincidence? I think not! And it was perfect timing.
I know once I give up trying to control the situation that God will take over and my child will come home. I am so excited! Keep us in your prayers because the more prayers for this the better.
Don't stop believin'!!!!
