Hand it over!

Well, first of all I am posting a prayer that I just saw on my friend Meg's blog (Go and Tell)...

"Let ____________ dwell in the shelter of the Most High and rest in the shadow of the Almighty. Be his refuge, his fortress, his covering, his shield. Do not let him fear the terror of the night, nor any type of plague or sickenss. Do not let any harm or disaster come near _____________________. Command your angels to guard him in all his ways and keep him from hurting himself. When he calls on you, answer him. Be with him in trouble; deliver him and honor him. Satisfy _______________ with long life and show him your salvation."

Today is apparently the day that the Lord is just gonna show me stuff... since I'm stuck at work & can't make it over to His house today. He has already spoken to me (shouted, really) through Joel Osteen this morning, on 2 different occasions.
First, I see this on Twitter:

         @JoelOsteen--No matter how long it's been, no matter how impossible it looks, 
           if you'll stay in faith, your time is coming.

Then I'm scrolling through the channel guide on the tv and see that Bro. Osteen is on... this is the topic.

          #548-Make Room for Increase! Key verses are Matthew 9:29 & Isaiah 60:1... basically don't set 
          limits on God, He can do so much more!

I am so guilty. Especially in this adoption journey. I want I want, when I want it, and don't give it over the Lord, when I know I should. He can do so much more with what we have, if we will just hand it over. 
Ugh... now to put that in to practice...
