30 months waiting

I have been busy with school and haven't had a chance to blog.  A few days ago, April 21st, marked our 30th month on the wait list.  I really never thought we would still be waiting but here we are.  We are so thankful to be SO close to getting a referral.  I keep checking my phone just to make sure I haven't missed the call.  I have been listening to Matthew West's new album and I am stuck on this song called, "Waitin' on a Miracle."  You know the times when you hear a song and it speaks exactly to where you are?  That is this song, especially the last verse:

"And my soul longs for the day
When I see the answer to the prayer I’ve prayed
And it’ll all be worth the wait
Waitin’ on a miracle"

Here are the lyrics and a video.   

"I’m down to my last drop of faith
My last ounce of strength
My knees are worn
From waitin’ on a miracle


I’ve prayed, God, I’ve prayed
I’ve stormed the gates in Jesus’ name
Crying out night and day
Just waitin’ on a miracle


But I don’t know how much longer
I can hold out hope tonight
And I wish my will was stronger
But instead I’m just a weary heart
Waitin’ on a miracle


I’ve heard Your hands can calm a raging sea
Can You calm the storm in me?
‘Cause that’s how it feels
When you’re waitin’ on a miracle


But I don’t know how much longer
I can hold out hope tonight
And I wish my will was stronger
But instead I’m just a weary heart
Waitin’ on a miracle


And my soul longs for the day
When I see the answer to the prayer I’ve prayed
And it’ll all be worth the wait
Waitin’ on a miracle"
