Once God tells you there are children out there that you need to go and get, it's impossible to ignore. Whatever obstacle, whatever barrier...it doesn't matter. A parent's heart is now driven to get that child. It doesn't matter what country or skin color . It doesn't even matter if you are already blessed with children or have had the heart break of loss. Someone else has your child and you have to bring them home. James 1:27 - the purest religion is to take care of the orphan. That is God's heart. To think that there would be no attempts to hinder that by His enemy is ignorant. For us, the obstacle is only finances. We wouldn't ask for it if it wasn't and it can be overwhelming if we get our eyes off of our Creator.
We are in the process of adopting multiple children from Bulgaria. We are excited at the possibility of returning to this sweet country. I was able to go as a missionary in 2013 & knew God had put it in my heart for a reason.
Thank you so much for sharing this opportunity with us. Please pray for us & our adventure! It's about to get crazy around here!:)
