We were not submitted to the US Embassy today. In fact after 3 phone calls made by Will directly to ET we are not even sure if their uncle has the document in his possession yet. We followed our phone calls to ET with calls to our agency here in WA state who were unable to take our phone calls due to a snowstorm.
BUT ... we are praising God because He is faithful and He carries our burdens each and everyday. And He sits on His throne regardless of delays in paperwork and we trust Him, completely, with our lives and the lives of our children.
Please continue to pray with us for breakthrough.
Last night my youngest sat on my lap, "Mom, why doesn't everyone follow Jesus so that they can go to heaven?" she asks. "I don't know Gracie, we will have to pray for them," I say. She is quiet for a minute and then says,"That is why we are adopting Eyerus and Tsinat, because if we did not, they might not be able to hear about Jesus."
It is so clear to her ~ in her simple yet deeply truthful and profound way she sums up in one sentence what we as Christ followers (adult Christ followers) can spend years wrestling with God over. If we don't... then they won't know... so we must, very sound Biblical doctrine from a six year old. You don't need to go to Bible college to know truth when you hear it. Fill in the dots for your life, what do those dots represent to you? What is He asking you, calling you to do? If you don't... then they won't... It looks different for each of us as Christ followers but the end result is always the same goal ~ an eternity spent with their Creator.
Matthew 18:3-5
"Truly I say to you, unless you repent and become like little children, you can never enter the kingdom of heaven. So anyone who becomes as humble as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And anyone who welcomes a little child like this on my behalf is welcoming Me."
