Home Study Time!

Our first home study is officially scheduled.  It should last about an hour and a half and I'm asking that everyone begin to pray now that our dog doesn't act like a complete psycho!! I'm very interested to see what this process will be like and I'll be sure to share!  I believe that we have to have 3 total and there is a bunch of paperwork to do as well - some of that includes:

-Physicals, TB Tests

-Birth Certificates

-References

-Financial Info

-Online training

-Autobiographies

-Fingerprints

The list goes on and on... but good thing that I am a binder queen so I already have everything started and organized!! 

As far as some other information... we have to decide whether or not we are raising money before we share too much.  Some countries have very strong views on fundraising and don't allow you to mention their country on blogs if you are doing so -- So, we'll see.  But I am glad to say that it seems that God has narrowed down the country that we're adopting from and I'm thankful for that.... God is good!  More info to come!

Verse of the Day

I receive emails each day from BibleGateway.com that gives me a new verse each day. I'd like to share today's verse which I'm sure you are familiar with if you are familiar with the Bible. Sometimes I get crazy ideas and I doubt myself so I needed a reminder that no matter how crazy the idea may be, if it's in God's plan, it will happen in his perfect timing.

"This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us - whatever we ask - we know that we have what we asked of him."

1 John 5:14-15
NIV
