Sometimes I want to stamp my feet with frustration.

How can I get him to see?

Why won’t he see things my way?

Why does he have to be so practical?

Please God touch his heart like you have touched mine.

I know I’m wrong for praying for his heart to change but I’m impatient. I see all the photos of children waiting for forever parents and I want to call them home.

My heart isn’t practical, it’s passionate.

My mind isn’t organised, it’s open.

I’m sure I’m called to adopt another child yet life doesn’t seem to be following this pathway.

Please God give me patience or direction.

I know you have plans for me, help me to understand them please.

Maybe patience is the lesson I have to learn.

It may be a long lesson.
