Grueling

Just wanted to share with you all that we do not have any news!

I’m pretty sure that this grueling wait is what God might be calling building character. All I know is that we have had next to no progress since August 15th. Every day, there’s a little bit more of my strength scraped away. Every day, it’s a little bit harder to cling onto faith that:

God knows everything that is happening. (He knows when I stand up and when I sit down! Psalm 139)
God loves us
God will work all things to our good

This last week, the last of my insulation wore off. Every morning is balancing between tears for grief over lost days with Jordan and clinging to trust in God. Sometimes a little of both at the same time. Not many tears have fallen, but if I look a little stretched thin… it’s because my heart is strung between Bulgaria and home.

Please pray that we’ll get our court date tomorrow morning. Please pray that the court date will be only two weeks away. Please pray that we’ll be able to pick him up only two or three weeks after court. We’ll lean on God no matter how long the wait is; we won’t give up on Jordan even if it takes years. But… please pray that we get to bring him home in November!
