We have lost her

After 7 months of working to get permission to adopt her and working through the homestudy process. With only 1 more meeting to go with the social worker to have it completed. We found out today that the child we so strongly believed was our daughter is truly not. She has been adopted by another family. We are in shock and heartbroken, but grateful that she is no longer available because she has a family. For some reason God has had us walk through this homestudy process again. We will complete it and continue to pray for guidance, search for his will and our child. She will ALWAYS have a part of my heart. My heart is shattered knowing that she will not become our daughter, but I am also thankful that she has been given the chance to grow up in a loving home. Your prayers for guidance would be so appreciated. As hard as this is we know that there is a purpose in it and we will continue to try and figure out where we are supposed to go from here.
