Everything

Tens years ago this summer I recorded a handful of original worship songs. At the time they were the songs that were being sung by the college ministry I was leading. They have "sat on the shelf" since with no real present purpose.

Recently I found myself singing a couple of them in my mind as prayers for for our adoption journey. There is one particular line from one of the songs called Everything that really captures part of this journey. It says. "Make me smaller and You'll be greater. I give my life to you, I take my hands away."

It is amazing what God will do in you and through you when you genuinely pray those words and open your self up to Jesus being your everything. This adoption journey is not about us or even about the baby (we and the baby will gain from it though!). It is about God showing Himself, and His heart to us by allowing us to be in this journey.

We, as children of God, are all adopted. He chose to love us like a Father. Now, He is allowing us to have a small glimpse into what that is like.

So far, it is amazing.

I have recently taken some of those songs "off the shelf" and would be grateful to anyone who purchase one or two. They are $1 each. All of the profit goes into our adoption fund.

Adopted...and Adopting,
