Someone Else has come forward
Yep, another 'person' has come forward to say they want to take care of Little Guy. I just have a feeling, like they are going to take him from us any day now. I know it's part of it, but I am human and I do have feelings and it hurts. It's my choice, but it's still no less painful. My thinking is that this 'person' will not go through all the trouble to get Little Guy. If they do, then maybe they are right for him. I don't think so, but I am partial to myself. Regardless, it will be at least a month before they would be an 'approved' home. So that makes me relax just a little. This 'person' is not related and has never seen "Little Guy". I really can't think about it, maybe it's a survival technique. These are the facts I'm faced with and I deal with it one day at a time. At first I was outraged (to say the least). Now I have just surrendered to the One who led me here in the first place. My God. I don't know the plan for Little Guy, and if we are only able to love him now then that is what we are doing.

I am so sorry. Lord Jesus bring you comfort.
Just because they come forward, doesn't mean they will get him. They will have to pass some screening. I will pray.
Help me to understand. What role does God play in his living with you in the first place? Did God make a mistake when he placed this child in his mother's womb? Or did God not have a role in that?
Praying that God's will be done. And praying for you. Like you said, it may not happen.
As for Sarah's comment: God makes no mistakes, but people do.
Whatever happens, I am confident it will work out for the best in the end. You just need to have faith.........I certainly understand that it is a lot easier said then done though.
I am not sure that I have been on your blog before, but I wanted to say hi and that I am praying for you through this process. I found your blog through monster wrangler, and we too are fostering with the prayer to adopt. We have a set of boy/girl twins that we have had since they were 4 days old, but are now facing the possibilty of losing them. It is such a tough process.
Wow, I just read Sarah's comment too, after I saw Hope comment on it. How sad not to have faith in God's magnicent plan. God makes no mistakes. It is not a mistake that he has been placed with you nor a mistake that he was in his mothers womb. God did all of that. We may not be able to see his whole plan, nor understand the details, but God does. "For He knows the plans He has for you, plans to prosper and not to harm you" I can't imagine going through this process without faith and without God holding my hand throuhg it all. God call us to "care for the orphan in their time of need" As foster to adopt parents, we pray that "need" is forever, but it may not be. We care for them when they need us, and when God calls us to love them unconditionally like He loves us. That comment just makes me very sad for her.
Was it not PEOPLE who removed this child from the mother that God placed him with?
You are loving this aren't you Sarah? ;)
Sarah- Yes, it is PEOPLE who remove the children from homes. And it is also PEOPLE who abuse and neglect their children. Sometimes God has to use PEOPLE to protect the little ones who other PEOPLE hurt.
