My mom and dad aren’t just the people who raised me. My brother isn’t just the kid that happens to have been born into the same family. My family are by best friends. I count myself as one of the luckiest girls in the world to get to call them mine. Believe me, we aren’t a prefect family. But they are mine, and I love the crap out of them. Which is why leaving them is a little hard… well more than a little. Its pretty hard actually.
Nine months isn’t long in the grand scheme of things. But it feels pretty long right now.
 
Day Nine: My Family
 
Today, please pray for my family. This is a new experience for all of us, and it will be full of firsts.
Pray that we will be able to take this one step at a time, and that we will be comforted by the Truth that the Lord provides.
Be praying that they way we conduct ourselves during this time will point people to Christ.
