Still Waiting

The good news is that we haven't been told to redo any paperwork, but we also haven't heard that we have been registered in Khab. Valentines turned out to be a little bit of a hard day. We were on the phone with Lesley talking about how sick Caleb was. (Caleb came home from China to be part of our family.) Lesley and Leigh visited about how much Caleb liked to be held and comforted when he was sick, and all Leigh could think about was who would comfort, and hold, or pat, or cuddle our kids when they are sick. We prayed, through tears, again that God would continue to hold our kids and that when we were able to, they would recognize that touch. God has done some pretty neat things lately to remind us that we are right were he would have us to be.

At a Kari Jobe concert last week I got some time to meditate and pray over the fact that God really does hold the world tight in his arms. Since that is the prayer we are praying, he just reaffirmed that while we are waiting he is holding on to us too.

Keep praying this prayer. Lord hold our babies until we can.

  1. Leigh and Bryan,
    I understand all to well how you feel, as I have been crying those same tears. I pray that our child, no matter where he or she is, has someone to hold and comfort them. I long for the day that I can hold my child. I will continue to pray for children and that God will soon bring us all together.
