Yup..thats right..i have a fever...none the doctor can cure, i have baby fever. My baby is only 4 months but its snuck upon me and ive praying about it ever since. I dont feel complete, and we have convinced ourselves that (God willing) there will probably be a third, but when???....
We discussed it repeatedly over the last week, everything from timing, to finances, to age, etc and we are leaving it up to God to make the ultimate decision for us.
We were on our way into winnipeg today and while we were driving i started praying (about fostering) and God said "I am calling you to save these children as i have saved you." Behind my sunglasses i started to cry. How beautiful is that, that God has chosen me. For what i still dont know, but it feels so honorable to be given this role.
I really want to foster, and i want to put my whole heart into it and give it the best shot i can. I feel as though if i get pregnant, im going to be taking away from this child whoever this may be.
So, im gonna kick the fever and wait to see what God has planned...

So good Heather for obey what God is saying and God will totally use your baby fever now as a driving force to keep you motivated as you get your fostering license and later as you care for those children you will have such a big heart of love just waiting to pour out on them. So proud of you...
ReplyDeleteThanks Cherise..were really looking forward to it :) Its going to be a little while yet before it happens but its so fun getting our home and hearts prepared for it :)
ReplyDeletethats awesome! I remember when God called us to foster- good luck in the journey. It is challenging- but also very rewarding :)
ReplyDeleteYup i am preparing myself for it being challenging. My best friend also fosters so i get to see first hand the issues that arise, but i have also seen some incredible rewards as well!
