As many of you know, one of the ways we’re sharing our embryo adoption journey is by making short videos.\u00a0 We’re partnering with the amazing people at Snowflake\u00ae to tell the world that these tiny lives matter so very much.\u00a0 These videos will eventually be used to create an awareness of the many, many embryos who remain frozen and the blessing of embryo adoption.\u00a0 For the next few videos we will be answering some of the questions we have received on this journey.<\/p>\n
We are humbled to be able to share our story in this way.\u00a0 The absolute desire of our hearts is that you would know that God doesn’t look down from heaven and try to find the best, the most able, or the most desirable families on the earth to take care of the fatherless. That certainly would NOT be us. The Father only looks for those who are willing<\/em>–faults, flaws, imperfections and all.\u00a0 It’s just amazing to me what He can do with a willing heart and a yielded life.\u00a0 You only have to read one book in the Bible to know that most times God uses the most unlikely of people to do the things on His heart.\u00a0 It’s all about His glory shining brightly.<\/p>\n One of my favorite quotes comes from Gladys Aylward, a missionary to China. “I wasn’t God’s first choice for what I’ve done for China. I don’t know who it was. It must have been a man\u2026a well-educated man. I don’t know what happened. Perhaps he died. Perhaps he wasn’t willing\u2026and God looked down\u2026and saw Gladys Aylward\u2026 And God said – “Well, she’s willing.”<\/p>\n I am very sure that I wasn’t God’s first choice for these four treasures. But I am so thankful that God looked down from heaven and saw me–a very imperfect person who was willing.\u00a0 No words can ever express how humbled I am by this journey and how thankful I am for the opportunity to try and give these babies the best possible chance I can to have LIFE.<\/p>\n No matter the outcome, my heart will forever be grateful.<\/p>\n
