Please keep us in your prayers, we need guidance in how to go about adopting our second child.

I'm really lost as how to go about this. I need the guidance of the Lord.

I will pray for you.

If you don't mind I will give you a few practical tips as well.

RESEARCH! check out all the agencies in your city and compare their fees and such.
RESEARCH:the different kinds of adoptions, such as infant, fost/adopt aka, Special needs, international and so on...

choose the one that is best for you.... God will give you peace about the right one when you have done the leg work.

It took us 5 years to get to the place where we were ready to adopt and for the last year we have been persuing it on a slow but steady journey that is ultimatly going to lead us to the joy that God has promised us parenthood.
Remember that you reep what you sow, do your research and the "leg" work and God will deliever you a peace to let you know you have found the right, form of adoption and the right agency.

Thank you so much for your support and more so your prayers. It means a lot to me and my family. Actually my daughter is 19 months old. We adopted her at birth. God lead us to her. It was amazing how I went from doing fertility treatment to 2 months later becoming a mother by adoption. We had been trying for 10 years. It was a miracle. Right now we are thinking of foster to adopt, but I just need the Lord's guidance.
Thanks so much.
