Future Plans

I am about to enter into a new chapter of my life and I wanted to update you, my dear friends and family, as plans are coming together. I have been hard at work interviewing people, attending classes and putting my home in order. I think you all know by now I would absolutely love to someday grow and carry a child inside of me, but for now fostering with hopes to adopt is what the Lord has set on my mothering heart. I have chosen to go through Antioch Adoptions and will be asking for future support in that area as they are a non-profit, child placement agency (http://www.antiochadoptions.org/). As for now, I ask for your prayers and encouragement as support. During one session of the 12 hours I spent in class last weekend, two women from Grassroots Therapy spoke and touched my heart so deeply, tears welled up in my eyes. I understand so many of these children have been through unexplainable things, but the creative solutions these women offered and the patience they demonstrated had the Holy Spirit speaking to me loud and clear, "THIS, this Kayla, is what I have created you to do". Have you ever had that feeling? Finally finding something that causes you look back over your life and see every little struggle and celebration fitting together like puzzle pieces? To see the big picture and what the Lord has been doing all along? It truly is unexplainable. "For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us." Romans 8:18 It's so hard for me to comprehend He knew all along! "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. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you." Jeremiah 29:11-12 Thank you for your support! Adopted: The Cost of Love http://youtu.be/kTpS8ij06M8
