Trusting God With What We Cannot Control: Waiting for Adoption
Welcome to the Called to Love Podcast! In this episode, I discuss the challenges and realities of waiting for adoption. The most important thing is trusting God during this process and part of that is managing expectations and actively engaging in the waiting process through praise, seeking God, and serving others. Throughout today’s conversation, I want to encourage you with scripture and my own experience as someone who struggles to wait. Here are a few takeaways: -Waiting is a part of life and a valuable experience.-Impatience is a common struggle, not limited to modern society.-The average wait time for adoption can be lengthy and unpredictable.-Adoption often involves the reality of broken families.-We can control our expectations, how we wait, and what we do while we wait.You can email me your questions about adoption and foster care at somercolbert@gmail.com.I'd love to connect with you on Instagram or send you my monthly newsletter with free resources and first access to episodes and more!
