I finally had a day where I could lay in bed in the morning hours and pray and ponder. I prayed and prayed for strength, guidance, and assistance. I am just finding that I am not accustomed to relinquishing control and allowing the faith that Heavenly Father will make up the difference of what I can't do.
I finished my prayers and began my morning of checking in with other adoption blogs that I follow and attempting to get some fundraising ideas. And, I came across a new blog. It is written by an amazing mother who has a child with EB. It is a heartbreaking disease and I found myself humbled not once but twice as I read her post about an absolutely incredible young woman at the tender age of 20 who is selflessly following Christ's example and is a modern day Mother Theresa! Please read this blog and I challenge you to still worry about your own small problems afterwards:
