We interrupt our regularly scheduled blogging to celebrate another family in the journey. I began working with Melissa and Sully when I was in college while we were all serving at the same church plant. They have beautiful hearts. Their journey has looked very different from ours. They have been walking a path of domestic infant adoption for a few years. They have struggled in the waiting and rejoiced in the details. They have had their hearts broken and prayed A LOT!
Today we want to celebrate with them. Their daughter has been born!
Dear Emily,
We pray that you might know how much you are loved, chosen, and wanted. God has been guiding your path long before you were even born. We pray that you might see God's love every day. We pray that you will grow to be healthy and strong. We pray that your days be filled with joy and your path be smooth and when they are not, we pray that you turn to your Father for help. We pray that you always know the sound of your Father's voice, the comfort in His arms, and the joy of His truth. May the Lord bless you and keep you. May His face shine upon you and be gracious to you and give you his peace.
Amen
