One Month

We are approaching the one month anniversary to our "Yes Lord" moment. It is weird to think that it has already been a month. I really thought at this point, we would be further in the process in bringing our daughter home. Unfortunately, things have come to a screeching halt for now.

But! I am still thankful. I am still in awe at how Mighty my God is. I am still praising His name for moving mountains (big, hippy, burly mountains! Hehe, I love you Brad!). I am thankful that He is teaching me valuable lessons while I wait. He is teaching me to trust His timing and not my own. He is requiring that I rely on Him only to bring my baby home. So I am thankful. Thankful that I am resting in Him. Thankful that I don't have to worry where the money will come from. Or, how it will all work. He knows and He is working it out.

My new lifesong is "While I'm Waiting". Check out the lyrics:

Lyrics to While I'm Waiting :
I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait

I will move ahead, bold and confident
Taking every step in obedience
While I'm waiting
I will serve You
While I'm waiting
I will worship
While I'm waiting
I will not faint
I'll be running the race
Even while I wait

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it's not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve you while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting on You, Lord

Praise Jesus. It is my absolute honor to wait on Him.

That is one of my favorite songs. I listen to it a lot, especially when I need to be reminded that things happen in His time, not mine.
