Insights, epiphanies and aha moments. Our eyes open to reveal something different. We see the world differently, more clearly, better. And when we see better, we do better. Sometimes they save our lives. This episode is all about Lori's lifesaving insights. She delves deep into the tough stuff - grief, mental health and painful emotional wounds. We would both love you to listen to it and have your own insights. As a wife, adoptive, biological, and special needs mom, teacher, writer, and speaker, Lori’s heart is to help others unveil a hope-filled life while growing in faith and relationship with Christ. Wherever you find yourself today, through both Lori’s freelance writing and her blog found at www.LoriSchumaker.com, you can find tools to help you make sense of God’s love for you, strengthen your faith, and bravely learn to live a surrendered life. In her award-winning book, Surrendered Hearts, she weaves lessons of letting go, trusting, and living surrendered to Jesus through the telling of her family’s adoption story.Lori has been featured on Christian websites including iBelieve and Crosswalk. Her work can also be found in several devotional book compilations.Here's a bit more bout Lori's story from her website...One look into a pair of sparkling brown eyes, and Lori and Bryan Schumaker fell head-over-heels in love with a beautiful young girl in Bulgaria. Certain this was the child God intended for them, they stepped confidently into the adoption process they’d been preparing for. They thought they knew what to expect, and they did – but there was so much more.The application process moved smoothly ahead, and they began making plans for their daughter – only to be informed she’d been adopted by a family in Italy.Heartbroken, they struggled to move on, until, through a series of incredible events, they learned their daughter still languished in her Bulgarian orphanage. Turning heaven and earth, the Schumakers started over. Mix-ups, red tape, inexplicable delays, and a difficult judge threatened the adoption, but they were determined to bring their child home.In an award-winning true story of learning that trust means surrendering your version of how the story should unfold, Lori and Bryan finally let go – of their dream, of their daughter, of their fears and frustrations. And in that relinquishment, God began to move.Here's a link to one of her blog posts https://lorischumaker.com/10-tips-breathe-hope-adoption-storyFind out more:https://www.amazon.com/Surrendered-Hearts-Adoption-Story-Learning-ebook/dp/B07WLJXBG1https://www.facebook.com/searchingformomentshttps://www.instagram.com/lori_schumaker/https://www.pinterest.com/lschumaker/https://twitter.com/lori_schumakerhttps://www.youtube.com/c/LoriSchumakerhttps://lorischumaker.com/
