I don't know how but he will and you will later look back and be able to put the pieces together. If I was in any of the above situations I would want you praying for me. I know you would from the heart and not with judgment. I am sorry for your pain. I have felt that pain before and it is BAD and it HURTS and I felt all alone. I hope you don't feel alone. Praying for you.Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08553976812510001971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-43056709404910466.post-75641383340659855682010-11-14T20:34:52.804-08:002010-11-14T20:34:52.804-08:00praying for you. you are doing an amazing job.praying for you. you are doing an amazing job.the johnson crewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00776474353375499103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-43056709404910466.post-88117272165615943412010-11-10T14:04:34.262-08:002010-11-10T14:04:34.262-08:00I will keep you in my prayers....my heart goes out...I will keep you in my prayers....my heart goes out to you and your family.

He's refining you in some ways you might not know until you get to Heaven. I'll be praying for you and the family.

I sometimes wonder if I'm crazy to set myself up for this kind of thing. We feel so deeply both love and pain. The pain proves how well you loved. doesn't make it hurt any less though.

No, I think that God gives us way more than we can handle every day so that we will fully and completely rely on him. Lean on him friend, trust his plan, his way is perfect and he loves those kids way more than you physically could.

Losing a foster child is hard, especially when it gets to the point that they are no long considered a foster child, but simply a child/sister. <br /><br />Thinking of you this week...and believing God's plan will be made very clear.Kyleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831000901872188471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-43056709404910466.post-91925808572331327172010-11-09T11:23:21.099-08:002010-11-09T11:23:21.099-08:00I am a bit at a loss for words, as my husband and ...I am a bit at a loss for words, as my husband and I are praying about taking the path into foster care/ foster to adopt. <br />I know of the pain...I know of the risk...and yet- I still want to do it.
