On the Journey With My Chosen One!

I am sure you might wonder why I call her chosen rather than adopted.... well, adopted is just her physical condition, CHOSEN is what we both are to be a family together! God is so rich in His Blessings, and He has chosen each of us from before the time we were knit in our mother's womb to be a FOREVER family! How BIG is that? How BIG is our God!?! Thank you for following our journey and for praying for us as we wait and continue to grow in the love of God! -- Blessings!



Liliana's Verses

Matthew 17:20 - " ... For truly I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain: "Move from here to there", and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you."




Zephaniah 3:17 - The Lord your God is with you. He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.




Proverbs 3:5-6 ~ Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him and He shall direct your paths.




Jeremiah 29:11 ~ For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for wholeness and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Some Good News....

I am ALMOST approved! Everything that went to Peru in November has been approved on the first time through! That is a miracle! There was one document, that the Peruvian government has added as a requirement since my paperwork went down there.... so it is on its way down there and when it gets there, translated and legalized, everything should get the final approval! That is when the Peruvian Socialworker and my Social worker (Allison, who is absolutely wonderful) will begin looking for a child.

Thank you for your prayers and please continue to pray! Please pray that God will prepare our hearts for one another and that He will bring about the necessary attachment that we need! Please pray for the Social workers to have wisdom, guidance and discernment in choosing the child for me! And, PLEASE pray that May 1st will be on God's travel schedule! :-) He has His own time and it is perfect, but May 1st would be, in my mind, such a great time for me to go. Thank you for these prayers.

To the side, you can see that I am working on getting her room ready. There are some pictures of her room.... Ladybugs are the theme!

Blessings,

Happy New Year!

I hope everyone has a great new year! I am excited to say that all of my adoption paperwork is in Peru! Everything went to Peru the week of Thanksgiving, so hopefully we'll hear something by the middle of February!

I am so excited, still very overwhelmed that God is entrusting me with a precious little life. Please begin praying for this next phase of both of our lives. Even though my little girl is still "unknown" to me, she isn't to God! He chose her to be my child before time began! You see, that is why I get so overwhelmed! What an awesome thought!

The purpose of the blog is to keep you updated on where we are in the process, and I will be posting while I am in Peru, that way everyone can get up to date info. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers!

Blessings to You and your family for 2010!
