Adoption is not about finding children for families, its about finding families for children.

My birth mother brought me into this world, but it was my adoptive parents who gave me life.

Though my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me.

Foster care is risky. Adoption is risky. Love itself is always risky.

You’re off to a great place, today is your day. Your mountain is waiting so get on your way.

I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of him.

We should not be asking who this child belongs to, but who belongs to this child.

I have four children. Two are adopted. I forget which two.

Don’t wait. The timing will never be just right.

And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.

Patience is not the ability to wait but to keep a good attitude while waiting.

Life is lived in the waiting.

Since God has a Son of his own, and such a Son, how wonderful God’s love in adopting us! We needed a Father, but he did not need sons.

Adoption is not the call to have the perfect, rosy family. It is the call to give love, mercy, and patience.

Being a mother is an attitude, not a biological relation.

God has made his children, by adoption, nearer to himself than the angels. The angels are the friends of Christ; believers are his members.

There are so many kids in this world, and in this country, that need homes. And so we’re perfectly content to look into adoption one day…

However motherhood comes to you, it’s a miracle.

Your greatest contribution to the kingdom of God may not be something you do but someone you raise.
