"And whoever welcomes a child like this in my name welcomes me." Matthew 18:5
I was running an errand for a friend this afternoon when my cell phone rang. It was our oldest son, Joel, telling me that when I got home I needed to call the agency back because we had a referral! He was a little excited. [Joel asked me yesterday after school if they had called yet-did he think I wouldn't tell him? :)] Well since I was driving away from home I called from the car. Amazingly I held it together as I heard the news while driving down the interstate-I wouldn't recommend this. I then had to call Ken who is out of town until tomorrow to tell him the news.
We are at the beginning of a long journey, but we know that we can trust the Lord to guide us as we go and we are ever so grateful for that. Please pray that we would wait patiently as we go through the process of bringing our son home.
