Your word tells us to father the fatherless (Psalms 68:5) which is what we know you are calling us to do. Our prayer is that you'll create the perfect match, provide perfect timing, and provide the resources we need to fulfill your will.
We pray for our child we've yet to meet. We pray she is happy, healthy, and knows she is loved. We pray that you'll begin to prepare her heart for the changes that are about to come.
We pray for the parent(s) who have faced the heart wrenching choice of placing their child for adoption. Father, soften their hearts and fill them with only the peace you can provide. Let them know their little one is going to be just fine. We also pray for their health and for their safety. We also ask for blessings on these parents for choosing to say YES to life for their child.
We pray for the men and women who are caring for our child. We pray for immense blessings to come their way for choosing such a selfless act to care for "the least of these" (Matthew 25:40)
We pray for the country of India. We pray for their leaders, for wisdom in decision making, and for the health and safety of their people.
Finally, we pray for our family. We pray for patience. We pray for increased faith. We pray for sound decision making. We pray for our hearts to begin being prepared for the daughter and sister that will soon join our family. We pray for happiness and help controlling any emotions that may come.
Father, we put our full trust in you. We are stepping out in faith to do what you have placed on our hearts. Take us and use us.
