One month away, 8th court date

We are one month away from our 8th court date. This is according to Beau, I have lost count. We STILL do not have THE document needed. It is hard for me to comprehend how long this is taking....hard to imagine not getting the doc soon. I can't even think about not passing court in March...Lord have mercy please. We are more than ready to bring these babies home.

I just don't understand it. My heart just sinks every time I hear that you guys have ANOTHER court date...and that the document is still not ready. I am just so sad for you. I know you want your babies home so badly. Did you know that I am traveling to Ethiopia in just over a week. I am going with Lindsey Clevinger. I will for sure get some pictures of your sweet little ones while I am there. I sure hope March brings good news for your family.

I think we should organize daily prayer times (on certain days or times, whatever) to specifically ask people to pray for your case. What do you think? I think that would be really rad.
I, certainly, am praying for complete and total success. This is your time!!!
love

Natalie: I know there are no words that will make you feel better, or take away the pain in your heart. I hope that knowing you are being lifted up in prayer provides you with some comfort.

Saying a prayer for both of us to pass on March 24th...but if only one of us it'd better be you! You've waited TOO long for your little ones.

Oh dear friend, I can't even comprehend the number 8 or the amount of time that you guys have waited with grace and such faith. Please know that you guys remain at the top of our prayer list.

I love Becca's idea- I would love to SEE Him move on behalf of your case. :) I'm in.

It must be so difficult to watch your babies grow in pictures! They are so precious! I will be praying that this crazy 8th court date is successful!

Praying praying praying for court. And for peace and comfort and courage for you all as it approaches! Hang in there and will pray daily for this! M

I agree with Albertson on this one --- call forth a daily prayer for 2-3 days so that we can be on one accord concerning the court date. I will definately take this to the Altar-Time of Prayer this Sunday.

I read this and am so frustrated by some of the waits. I hate that that one still isn't in. I am glad they are careful but I hope that that ONE document "falls into the right hands". I will continue to pray for you guys. We are ready for your babies to be at home too. I hope it will be a pass in March and a trip in April! Anyway I think a prayer day is a good idea and know that God is good to all who ask. What can it hurt? All he can say is PASS, or wait a little longer it isn't the right time.

Oh Natalie, what the heck! I can't imagine what you still need to get and why is it taking so long. You are amazing!!! I will pray as that is the only thing I know to do!

Shelly Roberts said...

Oh, the pain of the waiting. I guess the truth you can always hang on to is that God loves these kids even more than you do, and he IS in control.
