I see so many people in this group trusting in the Lord and I am so grateful for our God and those who by His Grace continue to stay strong

I wanted to share my testimony with you all as a continual encouragement.

I was adopted 3 days after I was born as my birth mother was a drug and alcohol addict and my birth father had a mental illness and was not involved in our lives. I was not wanted by either of them and was almost aborted. My adoptive parents are Christians and taught me to rely on God and how to hear His voice. I always knew that God loved me but with the rejection I faced from my birth mother I did not know how to accept God's love nor love from others.  I always fought with my parents and my younger sister. I was always scared of trusting them and being let down. When I was 14 I met a guy at church. By that time my best friend had already moved across state and my only friend was my dog. God used this guy to teach me how to be patient in love and how to love unconditionally. (He had a lot of problems) The more I intentionally chose love then to revert back to confining myself on a box and only trustig people to a certain extent the more God taught me about his love and how to lean on God for love and acceptance and through that other people come into the picture.  I've continued to pursue this man as he started to trust God more and allow Him to work in his life. We started courting after 4 years of building a relationship and intentionally putting God first. We were married in March 2014 and by the Grace of God and by allowing Him to teach us, grow us and mold us we've been together ever since and expecting a little girl this year. My husband currently does not have a job but God has provided a way to care for both of us and this child until the door is opened. We have never not been provided for. We may not have luxuries but we have everything we need.
