Today we received our new number. We already knew we were number 3 so it wasn't really a surprise. It's so hard to be so close but still so far from seeing our daughter's face. We are hopeful to hear something soon though. We know that the Lord is orchestrating each detail with care and wisdom. We know that He is trustworthy and so daily we cry out to Him and know that He is listening and that "and we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose."
We love our agency, All God's Children International for a lot of reasons but one thing that I love is that they are so encouraging. They always listen and really try to be our cheerleaders in this wait. Today they shared a special verse that encouraged me so so much.
"But
these things I plan won't happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surely,
the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems slow,
be patient! For it will surely take place. It will not be late by a
single day." ~Habakkuk 2:3
"Let everything that has breath praise the Lord." Psalm 150:6
