pure goodness

WARNING: This might be a long post..i obviously have alot on my mind...Ok, tonight our social worker from Fergus Falls, and her mom,who is also a social worker are coming to Bismarck..you ask for what?? Well, listen up..if you live in bis/mandan..come!! It's at 5:00 at Evangel Assembly's teen center..The Element! Food,Fellowship and face painting!! They are hosting a gathering for families who have adopted,currently in the process,or are interested in adoption!! If you have ever thought about it..come, and if you haven't...still come!! If finances are a concern, COME!! God will provide, at the beginning of our process, i was so worried about the financial aspect,we didn't want to go into debt because of this..because we all know how much stress money can cause(or lack of!!). When we started the paperwork, I asked God, and still do, that he will open doors that need to be opened, and if the process wasn't meant to be that he would abruptly close the doors...so there would be no questioning left for me. And guess what, Not that every step has been easy or without difficulty, but he has provided, whenever there has been a payment due..some way it WAS there!! Now that's GOODNESS!! Anyhow, I've also had a few people come up to me and ask,"how are you doing this,how can you love these children as much as your biological children?" Guess what, We already do..We have since we saw their faces. It's similar to when women are pregnant with their second child, and feel as if theres not enough love to go around,or "how can i love my 2nd like i love my 1st?" DO YOU HAVE ENOUGH LOVE TO GO AROUND?? Now, i do realize that adoption is not everyones calling,or desire, but I also believe that your heart can change and grow...sooo, come tonight...you never know how god will work in your heart... love & be loved kristen
