Willing to be Exhausted

Please read Summer's challenging exhortation to adoptive mama's today.

It is SO exhausting to parent children "from hard places."

SO exhausting.

it isn't about giving them a warm bed and full tummies.

To be honest, if that is all it was for. . .
I wouldn't make it.

But,
let us be willing to be exhausted
for the sake of their souls.

That will glorify God.

Let us be willing.
