Adoption testimony

This is my favorite adoption quote. I wanted to share this with y'all. Although we have infertility struggles, adoption was not a last resort for us.

 

Our adoption testimony to date:

We have always felt like we would adopt, not knowing we would experience infertility issues. After going to an infertility doctor for the past seven years, Kristin (myself) having surgery and a lot of failed pregnancy test... we said okay God this must not be what you have for us. We could pursue IUI or IVF like our fertility doctor talked about with us, but neither of us had peace about moving forward with either of those. The doctors have all been at a loss as to why we can't get pregnant since the surgery. We prayed about adoption and both felt lead to pursue it. We talked about the possibility of adoption while dating, but always thought we would have a few first then adopt.

We never understood why adoption was on our hearts as kids, and often we talked about our desire while dating. As we began to pray and seek God; we started to see God's plan of adoption. We realized that God's entire salvation plan was to adopt all Jew and non-Jew into his family so that we may become his children through his son, Jesus. This revelation has instilled a deeper desire to adopt. We've also witnessed several adoptions throughout both of our families. We have been so excited walking out our own adoption story, we can't wait to become Henry party of three.
