Romans 8:15-17 and...

"For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, “Abba! Father!” The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him." ~Romans 8:15-17

I'm so thankful to be a child of God, an heir with Christ, an adopted daughter of the Mighty King. How amazing is the Father's love for us! How vast beyond measure!! The way He welcomes us into His eternal family is indescribable. On that note . . .

Hampton and I are blessed to announce
that we will be adopting a baby!


We are right in the middle of the process and I will write more about the details soon. For now, I'll answer two of the most popular questions we've gotten so far:

1. We have no idea WHEN. The timelines for adoptions are all over the place. Just know that this is all in God's timing and we are trusting Him.

2. We are adopting domestically, which means the baby will be born in the United States.

There will be more details to come soon, I promise! Thank you all for your prayers and encouragement.
