Let's just say God is calling me to foster/adopt.
Can I wait for Bernie to be called as well? Can I believe the calling on my heart? Can I be patient for years, if that's what it takes? Can I raise my family, feeling like someone is missing? Can I trust that all will come in good time? Can I be like Abraham and Sarah? Can my children's hearts be opened to this calling as well? Can I imagine God overcoming the impossible so that it will truly be a thing of Him and Him alone? Can I remain faithful between the rains of blessing?
Maybe maybe I could. Maybe I can. But Abraham had the promise. And its reiterations. And visits from angels.
With quivering voice and unsure footsteps, Lord, I approach you throne and humbly ask for a sign. For something certain to hang on to. And in the meantime I will cling to the Someone Certain.
