OVERWHELMED BY THE CRAZY

I will have to be totally honest with you.  About three weeks ago, Bryan and I felt that we wouldn't be able to adopt.  We had emotionally given up due to the fact that we didn't  believe we would be able to get the finances it took to bring a little one home. 

Remembering my sunset moment that allowed me to know that HIS WAYS ARE HIGHER THAN MINE, we began to pray even harder. 

Then out of the blue, an amazing couple stepped up and blew us out of the water.  I have been overwhelmed with their sacrifice, love, support and encouragement.  I can honestly say that in all our years in ministry we have never seen anyone make such a sacrifice. 

This couple desires to adopt as well.  This couple needs money as much as we do.  This family doesn't walk around with extra money to hand out and yet they told us that the Lord instructed them to give to us. 
Why? 
I have asked myself this question over and over again.  Why? 
These people are just plum crazy. 
Crazy for the Lord.
Crazy to serve. 
Crazy to be a light. 
Crazy about giving these children a home.
Crazy for an AWESOME, CRAZY GOD.
I am overwhelmed by the crazy.
Because of their example, I have a desire to be crazy too.

  Will you join us?

Update:  DUE TO OUR AWESOME GOD, FAMILY AND FRIENDS, WE HAVE REACHED OUR HALF WAY POINT.  WE ARE NOW ABLE TO WORK WITH AGENCIES TO FIND A MATCH.  PRAISE THE LORD.  I THANK HIM FOR ALL WHO HAVE WALKED WITH US.  WE STILL HAVE 1/2 TO RAISE, BUT WE HAVE COME TO FAR.  I KNOW THAT HE WILL BE FAITHFUL TO SEE THIS TO COMPLETION.
