A few weeks ago, my friends were grieving the loss of a baby because at the very last minute, the adoptive mother changed her mind.
My friends were devastated. I was devastated. And it looked, for just a second, like God had stepped out of the room.
I fought—we all fought—to trust Him.
And a few days later . . . they got a phone call . . .
Let me be the first to introduce you to Baby Barrett "Bear" Crider. Handpicked by God, chosen for Dustin and Lisa, for such a time as this.
He's an answer to some years-long prayers.
And he has come, just like God's blessings always do, in His perfect timing.
