All of us waiting parents from our O are having a prayer day on Thur. There are over 70 kids at our O somewhere in the process of adoption. About 20 or so of them are waiting in MOI just like us. One of the other moms who is waiting in MOI declared a prayer day on Thur and the rest of us are jumping in both feet. We know we can't "strong arm" God but I do believe in prayer. We are told to pray. Phil. 4:6-7 "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." I also want to share the words of an old Allison Durham song that has helped me through this crazy adoption process. Will you join with us on Thursday with prayers for the adoption process in Haiti?
THEY THAT WAIT
by Tim Pedigo
Chorus;
They that wait on the Lord shall renew their strength
They shall mount up with wings like an eagle
They shall run and not be weary
They shall walk and not faint
There’s an answer for those who will wait
Verse 1;
Through the tears of sorrow through the depths of despair
I heard a voice calling, “Come and draw near.
For I’ve heard your petition and I’ve heard every prayer
Now trust in my power and wait.”
Verse 2;
He understands frustration. He’s aware of your needs
He’s faithful to answer those who believe
For His timing is perfect it’s a part of His plan
So trust in His wisdom and wait
