I can only imagine how that would feel if there was a catastrophy like this.

I understand the hurt the the looooooooong delays, particularly the unexpected ones, that adoption can bring, for so many different reasons. I hurt for you, the waiting and the situation are so, so, so painful. I pray that God would move in your heart with his peace in unspeakable ways and that something beautiful beyond compare would come out of this darkness. It is like our God to create beauty from ashes, in his time, and I KNOW he will do that with you.<br /><br />This sermon by John Piper on adoption has touched me so deeply, I hope it can do the same for you:<br />http://www.desiringgod.org/resource-library/conference-messages/what-does-it-mean-to-live-by-faith-in-the-service-of-the-fatherlessAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24266137.post-47080271055682982902011-10-26T19:46:46.897-07:002011-10-26T19:46:46.897-07:00Just heard about this.

We have just returned from a 2 week holiday in Thailand and while the areas which have been flooded are completely devastated much of the country is not affected.

And after we deal with all of the uncontrollable difficulties, it makes us realize that there is truly only One more omnipotent and omniscient who doesn't get thrown for a loop like we do. So glad that He is in control when we feel so helpless. He is holding you and your babe across the ocean in every circumstance. Cling to this hope and He'll get you through!chaniemomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17070645945655465424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24266137.post-88058367665527694492011-10-25T19:51:18.883-07:002011-10-25T19:51:18.883-07:00Oh, Jen...I'm so sorry!
