Help turn mourning into joy

Update!!
If you linked here to find out about the sibling group of 5 precious kiddos...

Guess WHAT??

They are OUR precious kiddos!!!

God did an amazing thing in our lives... just amazing!

I will share the story soon...

but for now, be content with this:


"You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing! 


You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy, 


that I might sing praises to you and not be silent!



O Lord my God, I will give you thanks forever! (Ps.30:11)

  9. Hello! My husband and I live in Spain. My husband is the missionary pastor of a church here. We haven´t been able to have children of our own, and we would seriously consider adopting these children. How can we go about it, since we are in Spain?

  10. IAG helps international families adopt all the time. If you contact them, they can help you figure it all out. Contact info in the last paragraph of the post.
    Thanks.

  12. I came across your blog when someone posted a link to this post on Facebook. We are in the process of adopting two kids from Poland right now but I linked up to your post on my Facebook page in hopes of helping this wonderful sibling group find a family. I am so sorry for what you are going through.

  13. Prayers for you all. I know your pain, and nothing helps but God's love and knowing that these lovely children are safe in a home. Praying right along with you

  14. I'm so sorry. I recently had to make the same choice. God had set a couple of waiting older children so firmly in my heart that I was sure they were meant to be in my family. However, he didn't set the same desire in my husband's heart. I struggled for a long time, but, eventually my prayers turned from letting us be their family to letting their family find them. I was still devastated (in an oddly bitter-sweet way) when I saw that they were no longer on the waiting child list. My prayers that they'd find a family were answered but not in the way I kept hoping.

    I will do my best to spread the word about these wonderful children.

    Again, I'm so sorry. I know from experience how much it hurts.
