Many question "Why China , why not here?" Although there are many personal reasons, one thing, for sure, is every child deserves a home. Whether " red or yellow, black or white, they are precious in His sight" and they all deserve a loving home. There are over 163 million orphans in the world and each one is deserving. God has placed on our heart the children of China. Why China? maybe because some in China will never hear about Jesus and He is using us to change one life. Maybe God had this little girl picked out for us before the beginning of time. All I know is God has a plan and someday we will see the bigger picture!
"God is....Hope for the hopeless, Power to the powerless, Victory for the defeated, Healing for the sick, Peace in the storm, The fourth man in the fire, Restoration for the broken, Strength for the Weary, Joy for the Grief Stricken, Love for the unlovable, Compassion for the hard hearted, Father to the Fatherless, Seed to the sower, The wind beneath your wings, Friend to the Friendless, Savior for the lost, Light in a dark world, & A Refuge for the homeless"(Unknown)
For our family and friends to follow our journey to adopt our little girl from China.
God has given us a heart for the waiting children in China (there are now over 2000 waiting for a family! Could it be yours?). We (Bryan, Donna & Zach) are adopting a little girl who is 3 from Changsha, China. We have decided to name her Lily. While we are waiting, and waiting, and waiting for the red tape to go through, I decided to start this blog so our friends and family could follow along. We will probably be traveling around April 2011.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord," plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11.
