Parked at Five

It is the Lord's will that our family is to be steady with 5 children for a while longer...we found out on Friday that we are going to be unable to move forward with our adoption until some issues get worked out in our current family.  The Lord prepared my heart for this but at the same time it is difficult to face!  God has put the desire on my heart for more children and it is hard to have to keep waiting.  Zachary is three years old now and the gap between him and a new addition to our family is ever-widening but I rest in the fact that God is writing our family's story.  God has a plan for The Stephenson Family and it is a better plan than I could ever think up!  God's ways are so higher than our ways.  So I will take it day by day and surrender the disappointment to the Lord.  I am trusting in Him and relying on His strength and love.
