For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will. ~Ephesians 1:4-5 Our family loves that scripture. God CHOSE us! He alone has ordained the miracle of adoption by bringing us into His eternal family. To date, God has gifted us with 4 amazing children - 2 by birth and 2 adopted from Ghana. He broke our hearts for an 11 year old girl in Ghana many months ago & over time it became very clear that she is to be our daughter. It would have been easy to say not us, not now…but God said GO, so we said YES! Yes to the precious daughter we already love so much and YES to her best friend, because we&'ve learned that it would be in the best interest of both girls to remain together. We&'re beyond thrilled to welcome these precious daughters into our family! We&'re trusting God to provide for our needs. We greatly appreciate your prayerful support as God fulfills his promise to set the lonely in families.
