People tell us that all the time. I guess that's what happens when you move to the "hood' in Atlanta – people think you might be slightly crazy . . .

Replace the word adopt with any "Christian approved" activity or career, because adoption is Not a bad thing. I am talking about the motive, not the action.

I really, really tried to follow this but I'm not sure I did. Are you saying if you Adopt but aren't "called" to it or aren't "walking with God" then it's somehow wrong?

" In the times of silence, nothing is more growing than stepping out in faith, knowing that my actions (or sometimes failure) will be used by God.

Sometimes it is only in movement that we can know if our life is headed in the right direction. "

I like this. Take a leap of faith off the cliff edge. God will either catch you or teach you how to fly. Who knows, He might even be the rock on which you crash and burn

[...] the other day, I read a post by Jon Acuff over at Stuff Christians Like, that hit me to my core. It might not be in God’s plan for us to ever have adopted children, [...]
