Why China??

So many people ask... Why China?

It's a long story, but for a short answer..God!

I have had the dream of having a adopted China girl since a teenager.  And I didn't even know anyone with adopted children at that time.  We looked at all the programs that AWAA had to offer because I wanted to make sure that God was leading this desire  .But even with the long wait, we still felt the call to China.

We have no idea how long the wait will be.  But I am longing.  I want God to hurry up.  But I do know that this is God's plan, so He will also know the perfect time.  And we don't want to rush His plan and our girl until God says.

Today we went to hear "The Angel Tour" (orphaned children singing and dancing).  We could feel our hearts pulling and tearing for the pain these children have suffered.  Why them? Why not me?  The questions are endless.

One thing that I'm am SURE of is... there are NO orphans of God.  If we ask, "all" of us can because God's children.  And He will  never let us down.
