Roadblock #1

Road Block #1

 I had no idea that we would already be running into road blocks. I wanted to be sure to write this down BEFORE God does something. I want to be able to bring Him glory when He shines through like He always does. We have been frantically filling out paperwork. We have had our fingerprints done, medical exams scheduled, in the process of writing an autobiography (Yes, a VERY long autobiography) My brain has been full of papers and signing and a little scattered because of it. One of the papers we have to fill out is a proof of health insurance and that if we have it the insurance company will cover our adopted child. Dave and I have not had health insurance for 6 years because we are missionaries and it just never fit into the budget so well. Well, I called today about getting insurance and found out that Dave and I are INeligible for health insurance because they look at the adoption sort of like a PRE-existing condition. (A Condition?!) I have to tell you that I have cried and that this is definitely looking like a mountain to me right now. I have calls in to specialized brokers, insurance agencies, etc. Will you pray with us about this situation specifically? 
I knew this adoption road would have road blocks I just wasn't expecting any so soon. 

This is a long journey over many mountains. I can't wait to see what God will do through our story. 

Dear Baby Powers, I dedicate this song to you today:

  6. Mariana Wakefield: I just LOVE you, your heart, your attitude, you're such a BEAUTIFUL woman Tara!!!! I love that you had to write this really quickly before God would solve this issue already and it would be too late to share it as a road block! So yes, I'm praying here but already knowing that there's a first miracle about to happen in the process!! ;)

  9. Luke Finger: What seems like an inconvenient mountain to us may just be God's way of slowing you down so you aren't ready before your special little one is! Cant' wait to hear how He makes the tunnel! :) (melissa)

    Thank you for allowing us to join with you in prayer; it means we get to rejoice all the more.....we have invested something!!! God's gonna do it!! I love seeing the impossible situation; it's the best way for Him to get glory. Luke 1:37 AND how appropriate that the topic is about having a child.....He is the same, yesterday, today, and forever!
