Still here
274 ...the number of days since I last saw and held my sweet girls...I wish I could tell you that I understood this but I don't.
I do trust that there has to be a BIG plan for our kids that the enemy is working OVERTIME to try and keep me from them! But I
tell you, I will continue to fight, I will not give up! As hard as this has been (there are no words) I have seen God work miracle
after miracle...This story is beyond amazing and the GLORY is all His!
We received word in early August (one week after the courts closed, of course) that our MOWA letters were written! ( A MIRACLE)
However we were then told we would have to wait until the courts reopened in October! (Yes, October) Again there are few words, but I can assure you, I may not have had words (well a few choice ones) , but I had many many tears.
My conversations with God resemble that of a two year old having a tantrum... Yes, I remember my boys terrible twos and I have to say they don't hold a candle to the tantrum that I have been able to muster up these days, I am talking blue in the face, full throttle...But, I realize that a two old can't see what is best, they don't have the capacity to grasp that you the parent are only looking out for their own good, you as the loving parent can see from a much different view point and you as the parent fully understand why but you are not able to communicate that to a screaming two year old. The tantrum will continue until the child finally submits to the will of the parent, only then can a parent speak to the two year old and be heard and received. You as the parent are there, your love never wavered, you never moved, your forgiveness ready and waiting for your child...Ready to move on, You hug them, you kiss them, you help them dust themselves off .....Sound familiar? I know that I know that God is our heavenly father, He has never moved, never wavered, always waiting for me to listen, all loving, all forgiving, His mercies are new every morning.... amazing
Today we learned that the judge is back and working (Thank you Jesus) ...Will you pray with me that our decrees are written, our children are moved, the final papers are gathered and submitted to the US Embassy and that the US Embassy works quickly to clear us for travel....
