God Gave Me An Idea

     Watch this video and it will help to explain what comes next.






Ok, now that you have context, you'll understand a little.  I am selling my beloved motorcycle.  In the video, Randy Bohlender was talking about reasons people have to exclude themselves from adopting.  I know I don't fall into that category.  But...he made a comment about being willing to sell the sports car to enable buying a large passenger van.  God kind of suggested to me that I sell my bike to help w/the adoption expenses.  I have been praying for a windfall of $20,000 from God to help fund the adoption movement--ours and other people's. Here's my way to pitch in.  I felt kind of crappy saying, "God, I'd like this, this and this.  I know you can do it...please send it my way."  Then look around and see I have something of value, but haven't thought of parting w/it because it somehow identifies who I am.  What a load of crap (lie!) The only identity that I have, that is true, is this: I'm God's kid and He really loves me.  So I now tell anyone within ear shot that I'm selling my bike to help fund our adoption.  Do they know anyone who would be interested in buying?
I'm praying that God will bring just the right person and they will be very generous when offering the price.  After all, it's going to a cause that's close to God's heart.
