An Inexhaustible Love

I've been waiting on a package to come in the mail the past couple of days and it was sitting on my doorstep when I got home today! Yipee! I feel like a kid on Christmas morning when there's a box at the front door... even when I know what it is! I'm the same with "real mail" too... I almost do a double take when I see actual handwriting rather then bills and junk. After all, it's not every day you get the good stuff!

Anyway... today's package was some shirts that Joshua and I designed and ordered to see if we liked what the design actually looked like once it was on the shirt. Our thought was, if they turned out good, we'd look into ordering more to sell as one more avenue of fundraising for our adoption. Here's the design that we thought would look good for the gals. "An Inexhaustible Love" is our theme for this adoption and if you hadn't noticed, the name we decided to go with for our blog title.

We thought it a fitting theme seeing that this pursuit we are on in seeking God's will of adoption, will no doubt become exhausting. BUT... what we do know is, we won't give up, we will get to Ethiopia, we will bring this child home, and we will trust God to be faithful in the process!

I love the parallel of how God's love is just like that too! His love for us is inexhaustible, He longs for us to come "home", He keeps pursuing our hearts, and He adopts us into His family.

So let me know what you think, if you like the look of the shirt and think it's something ya'll would wear? If so, we'll start looking into getting some made up. Thanks!
