November is the time of year when we pause to #givethanks. It's also National #Adoption Awareness Month. As an adoptive mother, I’m often asked about our story, what God has taught me, and other questions people are curious about. This November, I challenge you not only to consider the beauty of adoption and how you can help #adopting families but to also remember and thank #God for your status as an #adopted child in God’s family. There is nothing more beautiful than that! #Bible #Christian

November is the time of year when many of us pause to reflect and give thanks. It is also National Adoption Awareness Month. As an adoptive mother, I’m often asked about our story, what God has taught me, and a host of other questions that people are very curious to have answered. Becoming a mom through adoption has been a two-fold blessing.

It has given me the blessing of raising, loving, and nurturing our daughter.
It has deepened my understanding of the biblical doctrine of adoption — how God has loved me, pursued me, and made me His daughter.

In my short, five years of motherhood, God has driven two very important truths into my heart regarding adoption — both of my daughters and my own.

I'm sure you've heard kids say something like, “Mom, you ALWAYS say no…” or maybe it’s your teen who says, “You ALWAYS think I'm doing wrong…” But what do we realize about both of these situations? ALWAYS doesn’t really mean all the time because I know that my mom didn’t ALWAYS say no to me when I asked for something and that is only my personal experience. I can imagine that you could testify something similar in this scenario. #Bible #Biblestudy #God #truth #newblogpost #goodreads #amreading

How many times in our lives do we use the word always but really only mean sometimes?

I’m sure you have heard kids say something like, “Mom, you ALWAYS say no when I ask…” or maybe it’s your teen who says, “You ALWAYS think I am doing wrong…” I am sure there are other situations that you can fill in these scenarios with. But what do we realize about both of these situations? ALWAYS doesn’t really mean all the time because I know that my mom didn’t ALWAYS say no to me when I asked for something and that is only my personal experience. I can imagine that you could testify something similar in this scenario.

The beautiful truth is that when it comes to our heavenly Father whatever He says He really means that to the complete sense of the word. Always means always every single time when it comes to our God.
