In January of 2010 (an entire year ago now), I carried confidence we'd adopt. This is how I saw it.
Blessed Endeavor
A thought you grew into a want
And a want you nourished into a plan
This is your plan
A plan so beyond my scope of understanding
With needs I can’t even begin to pray about
If it were easy
If it were a straight and broad path
I wouldn’t see you at work
And what would be the growth in that?
But because it is such an unknown
So much larger than myself
Every step will be your footprint
Not mine
Every hurdle your achievement
Not ours
Keep us grounded to you
Not carried away by pride for good deeds
Not distracted by culture’s criticism
But focused on the seed you planted and
The joy of witnessing your faithfulness
Enable us to embrace an endeavor so rich with blessing
One that will change who we are- forever
