Adoption - Prayer Request

I was watching a video this morning about orphans
Anyone who knows me, knows that this is a near and dear subject to me. Since I was a little girl, I envisioned being a mother to many. I saw me as a mother with many children of my own and others of different ages, races, etc. I was 7 years old when (I believe) God gave me this vision and desire.
So as you can imagine, the last 3 1/2 years have been heart wrenching for me. I have seen my dreams dashed to nothing and have become hopeless in this.
However, this morning, as I watched this video, the desire is stirred within me again. I'm praying for it, but I don't know how it will come to pass. So please, if the Lord lays it upon your heart, pray for God's will to be done!!!!

God I desire to have more children and be a mother of many, either by natural means (tubal ligation reversal), adoption, or both.
I lack a husband & man of god who also has this vision.
I lack the finances to pay for adoptions.
I lack space and adequate housing to adopt.
However, Father, with You NOTHING is impossible.
Through You NOTHING can fail.
If any of this be Your Will Lord, turn it around in Your favor & for Your glory, and I will walk in Your will!
Amen

James 1:27

I balling as I read this post. It's the cry of my heart to want more children. We looked into adoption, but it costs too much. My husband was adopted and it was the best thing that could have happened to him. We have so much love to give. Our kids are always telling us we need more children.
You are so right.....NOTHING is impossible for our Father.

I just found your blog through the work and homeschool list. This is the cry of my heart! I'm single and adopted my first little girl from Hong Kong 4 years ago. God can change things and he can provide. You would be amazed at how many grants are available for adoption. Please email me if you ever want info at jenncslp@gmail.com . Hope to see you around!
