Back in January I shared “A Letter to Baby.” In it was the letter I had originally written on July 9th, 2014 to our unknown future child. At the time it was written Craig and I had no answers to the who, when, or how of this future little one. When I shared it with you on the blog in January, Craig and I were six months into our adoption journey and waiting to be matched. There were still so many unknowns, but we felt convicted that God had placed it on our hearts to grow our family.
The letter was intended as a love note, but it was also a reminder to me that, even back then, God was providing. Two years have passed since that letter was first written. You may remember that I started my letter “Dear Isaac” and today, I write to you with Baby Isaac nestled up to me and a message of encouragement for you for what God has placed on your heart to do!

What’s on your heart today? Maybe it’s about family too or a job, relationship, a move, or just insert yours here: _____________.
Whatever yours may be, it’s a leap of faith, right? It requires action and unknowns. You don’t know what’s going to happen or how it will turn out. You may feel like you don’t know what God wants you to do. You may just want to skip all the messy stuff in the middle and get to the end. That was all me, too.
Still, if God has placed something on your heart to do and as someone looking out from the other side, I want you to feel encouraged to pursue it! It ain’t always going to be pretty or comfortable or fun, but there is a special joy when are pursuing God's will.
Continue being faithful.
Stay confident.
Trust Him.
Experience God at work.
So take action.
In love,
Beth
