What happens next?

I wish we knew! We are licensed- but still waiting on those darn inspections! As of today- (I say this because it can change at any time, and we are praying it will)-the two little ones I previously mentioned adding to our family...are not going to be placed with us- yet. Whatever that means. So we don't really know what's going on, or what's going to happen, or what our family is going to look like next week, or next month, next year. And I'm OK with that, actually. After over a year of trying to figure everything out and why it's not happening the way I want it to, and why it's taking longer than we anticipated....I've finally let go, and God will place the right children in our home at just the perfect time! That is one thing we are positive of!

"If we are passionately pursuing the things that God is passionate about, why do we waste ourselves questioning whether or not He will come through on our behalf?" -

Someone posted this today- just as I was writing this blog and wondering if I really even believe what I am saying. Timely and true! God is indeed passionate about these kids. Speaking of foster children....what "are they"- anyway? I know lots of people cram them into the Orphan care "section", but they have parents. They are not orphans. I am not obviously talking about the waiting children that are in the foster care system who are orphans and who are waiting. They have homes (even if not like ours). Parents, who even though are in some kind of trouble with drugs, alcohol, abuse, or whatever- are still their parents and it's usually a pretty sad thing to see TPR (termination of parental rights) even if we think the parent(s) didn't try hard enough. I guess it really doesn't matter. God is for the underdog- with or without parents.
