"God is in the slums,
in the cardboard boxes where the poor play house. God is where the opportunity
is lost and lives are shattered. God is with the mother who has infected her
child with a virus that will take both their lives. God is under the rubble, in
the cries we hear during wartime. God, my friends, is with the poor. And God is
with us if we are with them.” - Bono
A blogging friend posted this on her site, and it moved me (Thank you, Bekah). I am not overly religious, but am finding that I am moved to tears often these days regarding this adoption. I am finding that those who have a stronger faith than I are making my faith stronger. I realize that God certainly has his hand in our life in every area and am more sure of that everyday. I pray for their babies when I pray for mine. May all of us have a quick trip through this process no matter what stage we are. This wait is unbearable for us all, but with our faith, prayers and love, we will get through it.

It moves me too. And I believe every word of it. I pray that God keeps His hand on all of you and calms your anxieties as you wait for your little babies.
