I must admit that I am not waiting patiently. Funny how we say we trust Jesus, and then we find ourselves growing anxious when we are forced to wait. Or is it just me?
I am growing anxious, too, about the amount of money we will need to be able to take the girls with us. I am growing anxious about the price of airline tickets. I am growing anxious about the amount of time we will be in China....is there a theme here?
I've said this before, but I believe today is a good time to repeat myself.
I feel like the Israelites. Praising God one minute. Murmuring and complaining the next.
Please join us in prayer. Like the man who said to Jesus, "LORD, I believe. Help, thou, my unbelief."
That's where I am today.
LORD, I believe. Help thou my unbelief.

I am RIGHT where you are right now! Seriously, I could have written this post myself! We're waiting on LOA for our son (LID Sept. 21) and were just recently logged in for our daughter in Shanghai.
It is soooo extremely incredibly difficult to be patient. I'm struggling a lot with waiting....to the point I feel like I'm wrestling with the Lord over this. I'm trying to just back off and have peace but wow, its HARD!
Waiting is so hard and non adoptive parents have no clue what it is like. I feel your pain sister and I praying!
