Thread of Hope: Prayer One

In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps.
Proverbs‬ ‭16‬:‭9‬ NIV

Lord, I give you all my best laid plans. I give you my fears and doubts about the future. I give you my family, my children. You know what is the very best for us. I desire your best.

Thank you for leading our family on the journey of adoption. You have planted this desire long ago in my heart and it is amazing to see you working towards bringing our fifth child, our baby girl, home to us. I can see your hand so clearly in the many ways you have provided along the way.

I will follow you for I know that though this journey may be marked with hardship, you are with me. You are with my family and our daughter in Bulgaria. You have gone before us, to make a way. I am certain that you have planned surprising gifts of beauty along our path.

In the name of Jesus, I pray, Amen.

Thank you for linking hearts in prayer and becoming a strong, unbreakable Thread of Hope, crossing mountains and oceans on behalf of our daughter and family. His love will bring her home! To God be the Glory.
