Please Pray

Have new pics of our baby boy and would love to show him off but can't until we have our court date and pass. We did however get his height, weight and some info on how he is doing. Unfortunately he is not doing so well, our director informed us that he is really missing his family, he is sad and cries a lot. This news has really just torn at our hearts!!!! We feel so helpless at this point, we feel so sad for our little boy and his mom whom we are sure is missing him terribly as well, I just keep thinking how Grayson, who is his age would be feeling if she were in a strange place away from us. Please pray for Cooper, pray for his family, pray that our Saviour will hold him safe in his arms until we can bring him home to his forever family. We have asked our family, some of our closest friends and our church family to pray that things will go faster than usual so that we can give him the love & stability that he desperately needs right now.

Timmy & I read this somewhere and believe it to be so simple yet so true and so profound. That by God's grace we all experience adoption. Our status is from poverty stricken spiritual orphans to heirs of God's eternal kingdom in heaven. As ex-orphans we should all be in this together. All who trust in Christ alone have been adopted by God. We believe Adoption is a reflection of God's grace & Adoption is the wisdom of God's mission. So please join us in praying for the orphans of this world, all of them!!!! God calls us to do this, he commands it. "Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ."Galatians 6:2 & The King will reply, " I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me. Matthew 24:40
