And you are so right, what are we waiting for. My husband and I have been married for 8 years, we have 4 biological children and adoption has always been in the plan. Finally we said those exact words to ourselves after hearing Katie Davis speak about a month ago-"what are we waiting for!" It encourages me to see your family, I may be an odd ball in my circle but there are others who are cultural oddballs to and how wonderful to be able to connect! :}Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02714011312249287111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8208240036939788595.post-88333379231341812612011-11-21T22:46:30.499-05:002011-11-21T22:46:30.499-05:00amazing words, so how i feel :)amazing words, so how i feel :)Mistyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06206499296053775350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8208240036939788595.post-46082871676759936742011-11-21T22:45:23.081-05:002011-11-21T22:45:23.081-05:00So thankful for people like you who aren't afr...So thankful for people like you who aren't afraid to just SAY IT LIKE IT IS!!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00582858289973928326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8208240036939788595.post-36836206673628795222011-11-21T22:37:21.489-05:002011-11-21T22:37:21.489-05:00:) You make me smile Gwen.

You make people all over the world feel like they can know you and be your friend. I haven't been keeping up with blogs much, but just read Katie's book and OH MY! God prints all over every page! He is using that book to open eyes and ears and hearts to surrender to HIS will! Annointed...the book! I am no longer blogging publicly...long story. Thanks for being Gwen..and for sharing that with the world.<br />Don't grow weary in your journey friend..for you will reap a huge reward...and the enemy would love to snatch it from you.<br />Hugs,<br />Holly (Hope+)Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12182918486812141978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8208240036939788595.post-83092076104366857542011-11-21T22:17:42.073-05:002011-11-21T22:17:42.073-05:00Amen and I'm ALL IN sister!

That making sure they have food, water, shelter, and safety is a great way to honor the LORD with the gifts he has given you ..."<br /><br />You wrote that just for me. We have 2 sons adopted from Ethiopia (at age 6). I love them dearly...but some days (yesterday and today being 2 of them) I just don't have those "ooey gooey, lovey dovey" feelings about them. I get tired of correcting English and teaching gratitude and combating greediness. So thank you for reminding me that on some days I'm still honoring God just by being faithful and DOING the necessary things for them. <br /><br />Happy Thanksgiving!Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01620535027376861239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8208240036939788595.post-59006176103438224902011-11-21T20:11:20.091-05:002011-11-21T20:11:20.091-05:00AMEN AMEN AMEN!AMEN AMEN AMEN!We Are Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00799374786076387438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8208240036939788595.post-44829857735515498552011-11-21T19:42:36.913-05:002011-11-21T19:42:36.913-05:00Beautiful!

God led me to your blog in 2010and used these words (and all the 147 million gear I saw in the Franklin area) to open my eyes and heart to the orphan crisis and adoption. How I did not know this as a Christian??? At that time, I had many excuses and did not think God was calling us to "that kind of life." God had other plans and we are almost through our homestudy to adopt an older/waiting child (or 2) from the Democratic Republic of Congo. Keep sharing your passion--it may be the first blog post about adoption and orhphans someone reads!Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13756303228669475402noreply@blogger.com
