I have been so blown away by the amazing love and care God has shown us through His children throughout our journey to Madalyn...all of your prayers and words have been such a blessing to our family.
I woke up this morning and had this waiting for me in my inbox. It's from Amanda and I asked her if I could share it since it so beautifully states God's Plan for all those waiting for their children:

Hey, it is 11:40 and I am up praying. I began praying for you, Greg and Madalyn and wanted to share some things God spoke to my heart tonight. I read your latest post and while I was doing it, I felt God speak these words for our families:
"I started these adoptions and I will complete them. This completion will not be one like you know it-- it will actually, be the beginning to my plan for your families. What I start, I always finish in perfection. I have that appointed time for each of your daughters to come home to their forever families. It was ordained at the foundations and I will see it through. That is my job. Your job is to trust and be joyful in the trusting. When I call them OUT, it will be through my divine appointment and it will be miraculous. I will be glorified through this-- now start glorifying me with your faith, trust and joy. Many eyes are on you at this time-- watching to see if you truly believe what you have been proclaiming. Proclaim my promises and I will not let you down. Madalyn and Bella ARE coming home and NO ONE will be able to stop them once I speak it into existence! Just as I spoke to the waters at the time of creation and told them how far they could come to the land-- I am going to speak and it will be done. Man cannot and will not thwart My plans for My children. Now, rest in Me and watch Me do My work!"

Wow. What an amazing Truth! The LORD is, the LORD was, and the LORD will always be in control. Forgive me, Father, when my flesh doubts that. I love you, Jesus, and cannot wait to serve you today! Bless all of the waiting families, our children and their caretakers today. Continue to carve out a place in our children's hearts that only their forever families can fill. May our union with them one day be a joyous occassion and bring YOU all the GLORY. We love you, Father. In Jesus' Holy Name, amen.

Kristin,
Please know that I am continuing to pray for you and Amanda, and all of the other waiting families! Abbie's adoption is living proof that God will see these adoptions through - according to His plan, and not ours! You are such a blessing and encouragement to me! I hope and pray that one day, we can meet in person with our children!!!
Love and prayers,
Karen
