I am the Lord, the God of every person on the earth. Nothing is impossible for Me.
— Jeremiah 32:27
When you’re dealing with a major disappointment in your life such as a failed adoption, you need to be aware that God is still in control. You need to know that it’s not over until He says so.
Life’s accidents and difficulties are not a reason to bail; they’re simply a reason to wait.
If you’re wondering how you’ll handle discouragement or cure for disappointment, go back and read the Word of God. Then read again. You’ll get reminded that you aren’t the first person to mourn. And, you’re not the first one to be helped.
The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves.
He will take great delight in you; in His love He will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.
— Zephaniah 3:17
This verse reminds us that God is on our side, cheering for us. When you’re too tired to keep waiting for your adoption to happen, He’ll carry you. If you’re too discouraged to keep up with your adoption paperwork, He’s picking you up.
The bottom line is this: God is in control. Throughout eternity He’ll remain in control. And, especially, our great God also loves us!
