DELAYS! DELAYS! or Waiting on the Lord's Timing!

The last few days have been hard because it seems like there have been so many hold ups in the process moving forward.  We finally have what we think we may need to use for insurance, but we are still waiting on letters from the offices and one had to be redone.  We have had to have other papers redone that had been done wrong, been mailing lots of items next day air, etc., etc.  A lot of red tape...... and waiting.....  We are trying to press in to the Lord and release this to Him and wait on His timing.  No matter how it seems sometime, the government is not in control, He is!!!! And we have to trust in that and try and wait peacefully.   We need to try and stand on the well-known verse in Isaiah that says, "They they wait of the Lord will renew their strength (as we are tired emotionally and physically); they will run and not be weary; they will walk and not faint..."

Please pray:

1)That we would get the home study proofed, we would get the documents we need and get it all to DSS in the next two days.

2)For favor with DSS and immigration in the next two weeks and a quick transition through the process.

3) Peace for us as we are waiting

4)  Financial provision and faith to trust Him for this.  We have already put forth $2000 out of our own money and we will be needing quite a bit more in the next few weeks.  Sometimes, the needs are overwhelming.

Thanks for all you prayers......
