Thank you Angela for your honest approach to what we are all trying to do, raising Godly Kids in Troubled Times. I admire those that have followed Gods call to adopt. I know it brings so many new challenges that I dont even know about. God bless you and all those that have chosen this path. You are making a difference, and you are setting an example for all of us. Thank you for saying yes, -even when you want to stay in bed with the sheets over the head-. May we all look back on these days and know we have completed the task God has set before us. God Bless You!

Having children at both ends of the spectrum, where learning is concerned, and three adopted children (with various degrees of the issues related to abandonment)I’ve sometimes questioned what God was thinking when he put me in this situation. But, thinking about what life would be life if I refused to say “yes” to God helps put it in perspective. It makes me think of the verse that says “to obey is better than sacrifice” – although sometimes obeying IS sacrifice. So, why not just bring “the sacrifice of praise” and keep taking one step at a time?

Angela is a friend, colleague, and sister-in-the-Lord. She and I have prayed together many times. I appreciate her example of realness.
