. . . .What a Waste it Would Be

(Please first read my last post - this is the "AMEN" - the " proof" to that post)

What a WASTE it would be for these boys to have grown up in an orphanage! What a complete waste it would have been for our family not to follow God's call. We would have missed out on watching God's miracles of providing, answering prayer, transforming lives, heaping blessings on us and growing through trial after trial. The light in their eyes, the hope, the love, the personalities shining - it is undeniable. All of this - not because of us, because we fail and struggle and are by far not the perfect family - but through God's grace, he chose to use us and work HIS love and HIS Grace in the lives of these boys. What gratitude fills my heart to think that the Lord would use us - a broken, sinful family to fill the most basic need in 2 boys' lives - the need of being loved by a family. All Glory to Him!

Dear Lord,

Thank you for choosing the perfect boys for our family and the perfect brothers for eachother - not related by flesh and blood, yet as close as twins.

Love,

The D Family
