Please keep your hands and arms inside the ride at all times. This past week we have gone back and forth on what to do about our dossier. If it is going to be years before we get a referral, then perhaps we should put this on hold, have another bio child and pick things back up in a few years. This was sounding pretty good to me because I have the baby bug! However, I am grateful for the women in my life who have more faith than I and who were fearless to speak truth into my life this week. They reminded me that Lord has clearly walked us down this path to this point, and He is FAITHFUL! We don't know what the future holds... but we know who holds the future! Silly, I know. But true.
Well folks, we have submitted the dossier! The situation in Ethiopia is still somewhat dire and could potentially add many months or even years to our wait. However, we have decided to put our family's future into the capable hands of our God. We mailed the package on Monday and it will be Ethiopia bound by Friday, March 25! If we weren't committed before, we are now!
Thank you for all your prayers as we have labored with this decision. Our biggest desire is that we glorify the Lord through this process, and you have helped us to keep our eyes focused on Him as we wrestled with uncertainty... you know who you are (wink).
