patience= endurance/long suffering

We are in the last stretches of paperwork before actually seeing who God will bring into our lives....
pray for us as we will be sending documentation off to governments here and there in this month. But I  would really like you to pray for the MOWA (women's affairs in ET that handle the crucial parts of our case) that when our case and referral comes to them that God would move it through efficiently and w/o bumps. Also that whoever God is calling to be apart of our family has no hidden health issues and that supplies all of the financing for this. He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all we could ask or think.

Some would gather money
Along the path of life,
Some would gather roses,
And rest from worldly strife;
But, I would gather children
From among the thorns of sin,
I would seek a golden curl, a toothless grin.
For money cannot enter
In that land of endless day,
And roses that are gathered
Soon will wilt away.
But, Oh, the laughing children,
As I cross the sunset sea,
And the gates swing wide to heaven
I can take them in with me.

Plugging away!

  Summer is here so quickly it seems.  Our Caleb is leaving Monday on a mission trip to Nepal first month and India second month.  He will not be home till August 4th.  I am so excited to see what God is going to do through him and in him.  It will be only propelling him forward in what God has for him.
  ON another note we are in the last of the paperwork waiting...I would love to send my dossier off by July.  After this we are put on a waiting list for a child/children. I know God has his PERFECT timing in all this.
