Thoughts today.

Here is what's on my mind today! Why is adoption so expensive!? Is it satans way of keeping children oppressed or is it God's way of allowing believers the opportunity to be his hands and feet in this process? 

Regardless, it's frustrating. It's humbling, and a faith building experience and has shown us God's glory in big ways, but it's also frustrating. Really frustrating. I heard some crazy, awful, depressing statistics today about children in Honduras. There is a big need there for adoption of children. I went over to our agencies website and jumped when I saw that they had a program. Then I scrolled to the bottom of the screen and saw a big, fat, $41,999.00! Wow! 

I know only crazy people look into adopting more children before their current adoption is even done with or paid for. But I just wish it was cheaper. I wish every person who felt a pull on their heart could afford it and say "Ok God, tell me when!" 

And after hearing the above statistics I mentioned, I emailed Lance and asked him if we could consider a Honduran adoption next. He emailed back that he would be willing to "tuck it away in the back crevice of his mind!" Ha! I'll take it. 😄

That's all. 

A more positive post next time I promise.
