God
has closed so many doors throughout the past year and a half that we thought we
were not going to go to Uganda - at least we thought for now. We had decided to move back into our house
at the end of August and then God miraculously sold our house. We were confused as to why He did that since
we had no plans to go to Uganda. It
makes more sense now. If we had moved
back into our house, we would've been closed to what He had in mind for
us. He wasn't done with us yet.
Amy's
friend was in Uganda a couple months ago adopting a child, and Amy asked her if
there were other children that she knew of that needed a family. She said there were two sisters needing to
be adopted, ages 5 and 3. We prayed
about it and got in touch with the adoption agency. They were very helpful, and we started the process. We applied to the adoption agency, and we
were accepted. We re-started our
homestudy and are currently in the process of gathering all of the required
information for international adoption.
We plan on going to Uganda this spring with our kids to bring their
sisters home. God has provided all
along. His plans are perfect. God WAS opening doors for us and because of
so many closed doors, it was confirmation that we were doing what He
wanted. As if to give us even more
encouragement, we found out that someone donated to the agency to help with our
adoption expenses. This was shocking to
us since we hadn’t told very many people that we were adopting and even fewer
people the name of the agency we are using.
