Since we announced our decision to adopt, our car has been in the shop not once, but twice. 3 light fixtures in our house have been broken by crazy things like lightning strikes. Both toilets and the kitchen sink broke in the same week (the week we sent in our application and first payment). Our air conditioner broke. Now half of our outlets have stopped working, so we need to call an electrician out again. We've both gotten sick more in the last couple of months than our entire married life combined. We have people who continually throw venomous arrows at us in the form of discouragement and hateful remarks. So yes, I TOTALLY believe that there is a spiritual attack element to adoption. But I also TOTALLY believe that our God is way bigger, and while the battles may make us feel defeated, He has already won the war. Every time something like that has happened to us, He provided in some other unexpected way. Praying for you-- really. Call or email anytime you need to talk!Courtneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07993750344777196845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5707570071914947773.post-36873352497241844452010-12-30T10:47:44.655-08:002010-12-30T10:47:44.655-08:00Joyce, thank you for your encouraging words and fo...Joyce, thank you for your encouraging words and for reminding me that He never fails us! :)<br><br>Emily, SO SO excited for you!

Here is the scripture that I am standing on. <br><br>Romans 8:28<br>And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God and have been called according to His purpose.<br><br>Hang in there. We are definitely praying a hedge of protection over your family and those precious babies you are about to meet.
