Always Family

Always Family… Adoption has been one of the most beautiful and sanctifying journeys I’ve been on in life.  It has stretched me, pulled me and pushed me in ways I never thought possible.  God has used adoption to help me grow spiritually in countless ways.  It has blessed me and humbled me and I know it will forever change me.  I am learning something new every day.  But today, I reflect on the truth that my son, whom I love with my whole heart, has another family, who loves him with their whole hearts.  It’s this shared love that binds us in a way that I can’t fully understand or explain.  I love them too. It brings me great joy to see my son, who’s growing much too fast, reconnecting with his family tree.  I pray that these relationships help him better understand his past, his present and his future.  I pray that he understands how God’s hand has been in his life from the very beginning… and God’s plan has played out to this very day… so that he can know and see that everything always works out for good.  He can trust that God’s always watching over him.
