I really think God allowed those four months of waiting and wondering in order to put me in a deep place of trust. I personally felt that when those feelings of fear/worry came up that He was asking me not to go to boards/advocacy sites/agency/people for support but directly to Him first. This helped my spirit so much and was a great lesson to learn for life. I was even able to find some sweetness in the waiting time and I hope you can as well. Can't wait to share in your celebration when you see the face of your new little one!

We waited to be matched from March to January. We started reviewing files more actively in October and had to say no to several before we were led to Lydia. It was so hard. But, you are absolutely right--the Lord has led you thus far and He WILL NOT fail you. His timing is perfect and He will see this adoption on to completion.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04910258636674801379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6013890652956473471.post-14683141236832957182011-01-20T16:45:19.338-05:002011-01-20T16:45:19.338-05:00I could have written this post!

Changing my husand's heart, providing money when needed....but, with a LID of 11/12/10 we too, are awaiting a referral for an older girl. We are open to some SN...it just seems as though the kids on the lists have SN that we are not comfortable with. You were probably like me waiting to hear if there was a match on the last list....and then your heart breaks because there wasn't.<br /><br />I know that our daughters are out there, just waiting for us! Who knows maybe our girls will be on the sme list!<br /><br />By the way, I'm the one that sent you the poem "wait".juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03087122687455810642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6013890652956473471.post-41043887424701440362011-01-20T12:11:24.509-05:002011-01-20T12:11:24.509-05:00Praying, and so glad He is providing for you.
