Starting our Dossier

So we started our Dossier this month. I admit as I read the long list of "paper chasing" I became a little overwhelmed and discouraged. But I was quickly reminded and convicted of what God  sacrificed to adopt me. He had to sacrifice His beloved Son on a cross so that I might become a child of His. And suddenly all the paperwork, notarization, and busy work did not seem so bad after all. How very thankful I am for His zealous love for me...that he would love me so much to provide his beautiful plan of salvation for me. Again, I am reminded in His word, " I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you." in John 14:18   So, as I collect my documents, make my phone calls, and run my errands, may I do it with thanksgiving. Please continue to pray for us...that God's timing would be perfect, that He would continue to teach Keith and I through this crazy process, and, most of all, that He would be glorified and would fulfill His purposes through our adoption.
