Answered Prayers

Two big prayers were answered yesterday:

The Kulps, whose baby Micah is from the same orphanage as our three, received their court date yesterday. Micah's paperwork was finished a couple of weeks ago and yesterday they FINALLY received news that their case will be heard in court on April 1st. We praise the Lord! Please keep praying Micah to the finish line!



We also received word yesterday that ALL the children from Infansi@ (the orphanage our children were originally from) will be transferred to a new orphanage, the same way our children were. This has been the prayer of our hearts for months that the Lord would provide a way for these children to be placed into families. We are humbled that God used our case and the Kulp's to help bring hope and a future for these children. We Praise God that we visibly see purpose in our wait.



Keep praying for Isaiah, Josiah, and Lydia. The latest update (which is the same one we've had for the past two months) is that hopefully their paperwork will be finished in a few more days. At that time, our agency will be able to petition for a court date. Having a court date, will help me visualize a finish line. It will be tangible confirmation to my mommy-heart that one day I will get to hold my precious babes.


This old hymn by Fannie Crosby has been running through my mind since yesterday. The words are rich and definitely my hearts cry, as we continue to wait:


Pass Me Not, O Gentle Savior

Pass me not,
O gentle Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

Let me at Thy throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief,
Kneeling there in deep contrition;
Help my unbelief.

Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

Trusting only in Thy merit,
Would I seek Thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace.

Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

Thou the Spring of all my comfort,
More than life to me,
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
Whom in heav’n but Thee?

Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
