I woke up this morning and very quickly thought, "it's Thursday, I get to pray today!" I almost laughed out loud at myself because it sounded so silly. It was like setting I now had permission to pray/take some time away from other things to ask God for direction specifically about fostering/adopting, or anything else He wanted to bring to mind. I absolutely realize this gift of prayer is available to me, and encouraged constantly, but at least for me, it has taken a specific commitment to help me remember.
I sent out my first e-mail to that prayer e-mail list, and I was happy to get responses from people with their encouragement and confirmation that God is in control of the lives of everyone involved. It feels great to include our friends and family in the process!
