Thank You to Brandon and Kelly Burton

Yesterday morning in a Bible Fellowship class at church, Brandon and Kelly Burton shared about their personal journey to parenthood. From being told that they would likely never be able to have children through to their exploring of the adoption process to ultimately the joyous moments of receiving their son, the Burtons were very open that even though times of sadness and disappointment occur, we can have peace and joy.

Brandon and Kelly shared not just a timeline (this happened and then this happened next) but details of difficult discussions and hard questions they had to wrestle with. Their journey is heart-warming and encouraging. Their openness and candor is greatly appreciated and potentially very helpful to other couples dealing with these types of issues. If Brandon and Kelly can serve as a resource or an encouragement for you, they would be glad to do so. If so, please contact me and I'll be glad to connect you with them.

Here's The Point: God has a plan. It may not be the plan we thought it would be. But His plan is always best.

One more thing- Brandon and Kelly's son is adorable.
