I couldn't be more proud...or inspired...or encouraged.
My sister and her sweet family have chosen to say "YES" to God!
They are on a journey to Joy and are leading by their beautiful example of faith.
Joy is three years old and has hip dysplasia. Joy needs a family. She currently lives in China and probably has no idea that she will be adopted very soon. She can't imagine the amazing family that God has ordained for her to be brought into...yet. This little girl is about to be beyond blessed, but as of now she is unaware of the gift God is preparing to give her.
How often are we like Joy? Living our lives unaware of what God has in store for us, denying His faithfulness. His blessings are bountiful and sometimes arrive after a season of desolation. But if we cling to Him and wait upon His perfect timing and plans, He is trustworthy to bless us with His best for our lives.
If only we could see behind the scenes...but then it would not be called FAITH.
"Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen."
Hebrews 11:1
Showers of love await Joy...she is being prepared. We too are being prepared, daily as we wait upon the Lord.
