Getting Closer

All our paper work is in Ethiopa now :-)!! So we are getting closer to bringing Asher & Sadie home. Please pray that our court date is not far off.

Here is a passage that a friend of mine shared with me.
24 About Asher he said: "Most blessed of sons is Asher; let him be favored by his brothers, and let him bathe his feet in oil. 25 The bolts of your gates will be iron and bronze, and your strength will equal your days.

Doing Good

Our social worker from Illien is back from Ethiopia! Asher is doing great and listens to our voices on the digital recorder all the time! ( thank you Nancy for the wonderful idea!!!!. He is chubby, happy and healthy! we pray he continues this way till we can get him home.
Sadie is doing as well as she can and has taken to the formula well :-) but is still a tiny girl, she did interact well with Susan so this was great news!
We hope everyone had a wonderful new year! Thank you so much for all the payers and please keep them coming! We know everything will fall into place in His time and way.

Kathy Troccoli - A Different Road
From the album Corner Of Eden

I've traveled long
I've traveled hard
And stumbled many times along the way
I've bruised my knees a lot
And turned my back on God
And seen His mercy

I've been quick to judge
And slow to learn
So many times I've gotten in the way
I think I know so much
I've questioned God enough
But still He loves me

So now I'll walk a different road
I want to see Him there before I even go
I've run ahead and gone too slow
I've got to be still now
And wait upon His will now
This time ... It's gonna be His time

Don't want to live
Without the peace
That comes to me when I am by His side
I've known the freedom there
I can't find it anywhere
But in Christ Jesus

I believe He's got a plan
Everything in His time
I may not always understand
Everything in His time
Everything in His time
