The photos of the orphans went up today. There are about 10-15 children available who might fit for me (boy from Latvia, possibly available for adoption). It’s overwhelming looking at these faces. I am suddenly full of fear…not the fear of scared-ness, but the “fear of God” sort of fear–this is a weighty decision. Please pray for me.
–Pray that I would choose the child with confidence.
–Pray that I would know when to stop looking (not all the profiles are up–soooo do I pick one of these, or do I wait and risk one of these being put on hold?? Gahhh!)
–Pray that the child will fit well with us.
–Pray that more host families will step forward so that all these children will have a family to come “home” to for the summer!!

I’m praying Dorah. I can’t imagine choosing a child online! He will guide you!!!
Ps 32:8 “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you.”
Ps 25:12 “Who is the man who fears the LORD? Him will he instruct in the way that he should choose.”
Proverbs 3: 5-6 “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”
