This is what I was having 3 years ago today....UNTIL...in the midst of tears.......I received a call from the woman processing our adoption. What did she have to say? She said "we got the signature!!!!!" I couldn't believe it! After 20 months of waiting for this ONE signature, we were finally on our way to getting passports for the kids! I was in shock! This day means so much to me! Not only was it something that I had been waiting for for a long time, it was also another one of God's lessons and promises come true. I had been involved in a Bible study and realized just a few days prior, that although I was praying for this signature, I didn't really believe that it would happen. I didn't really pray as if God would answer this prayer. I was saying the words, but I wasn't trusting that God was big enough to come through for me. During this Bible study, I realized this. I repented IMMEDIATELY! Apologizing to God for not believing in Him. I immediately began praying with full trust that God could and would come through for us. Just 4 days later I got the call! Talk about a Miracle!!!!
I remember this lesson frequently. I remember that God is bigger than anything and if I believe in Him and remember that HE CAN and HE WILL, then my prayers are not in vain and He will answer in perfect timing! Thank you Lord for the 2 beautiful blessings that you have allowed me to parent!
