It is all in God's Timing

I know what you are going through. My husband and I struggled with the same thing over a year ago. He cannot have anymore kids either and the cost to reverse it is a lot. My desire to have another child was great and I felt as though God placed adoption on my heart. I went to my husband and told him about how I felt and he was not wanting to listen to it at that time. So, I stayed silent too and let God work because when ever we would discuss the idea we would get in a fight. It wasn't till our bible study group started studying the book called The Dream Giver by Wilkerson(?). This is a great book! In it it teached how God gives everyone a dream and a passion, he will lead your path but it is up to you to take those steps in faith. It also talks about how when you take those steps you will run into bullies and those who want to tear your dream down. My husband saw himself as that bully that tore my dream and passion down. God really changed his heart. The next thing I know he came to me and started discussing the option with me and now we are almost done with our homestudy and he is excited about it! All this to tell you to let God work in his heart and if it is God's will then it will happen, but you have to be willing to release your dream and passion to God and he will give it back to you when the time is right. I will be praying for you and your husband. God bless.
