What do you do...

when you want to welcome a teenager into your home, but she doesn't want to come??? Anna's heart is broken, I am frustrated (and dare I say it, a little bit angry, protective of Annah's feelings), and the boys are confused. Chad shrugs it off... "She's a teenager. She'll come around." lol Well, God's will be done. There is a freedom in knowing there isn't much you can do. But please pray as I would love for our happy home to stay that way! Yet, I know, we're called to do this and I know it will be challenging sometimes.

2Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. James 1:2-5
