Do not become weary.......

Galatians 6:9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. (NIV) This verse spoke to me today. Many of you are asking if and when Meena is coming home. I know she IS coming home but do not know when. It is easy to grow weary in the waiting, but I am promised that I will reap a harvest if I do not give up!! Please continue to pray for Meena as she is waiting. Pray for her continued safety and for good health. Colleen

The waiting is so hard......

I spoke with the agency again yesterday. They have been told that a new judge is taking the bench(I guess there is only one?). The judge has the power to handle adoptions in any way he/she wants. They can move quickly or complete one at a time. It is so hard to understand why these things are not already established and some standard procedures in place. I thought waiting for Connor was hard, that was nothing! Just thinking of her getting older and losing precious time for learning language breaks my heart!I look at those big beautiful brown eyes and see so much potential. I know she will learn quickly but the older she gets, the harder it will be for her. I found this quote and wanted to share it with you. “Timing is so important! If you are going to be successful in dance, you must be able to respond to rhythm and timing. It’s the same in the Spirit. People who don’t understand God’s timing can become spiritually spastic, trying to make the right things happen at the wrong time. They don’t get His rhythm – and everyone can tell they are out of step. They birth things prematurely, threatening the very lives of their God-given dreams.” ~ T. D. Jakes Waiting on God's perfect timing! Colleen
