So Jeral and I were in Vancouver this past week and we have filled out the application form to adopt a child. So a new journey begins. We are excited about this next step of the journey. We know that this is all in God's hand and we are learning a lot about trust.
I am also embarking on something new, and that is Spiritual Direction. I am still seeing my counsellor and have no plans on stopping that journey anytime soon. In many ways Joy is a Spiritual Director because she is always pointing me back to Jesus/God etc. Yet with where I am at I looking forward to embarking on this journey with the direction of another Godly woman. It looks like we will meet every 3 to 4 weeks. She is here in Armstrong and free so that is an added bonus because Spiritual Directors often charge about $60 an hour. With all the adoptions fees we are not in a place to add to many extra expenses. Especially since we had to replace our Fridge and Dishwasher today! However I am excited to have a new fridge and dishwasher, they are stainless steel.
