Urgency.


Today I feel an urgency....I woke up several times last night to pray...a VERY restless, sleepless night. I'm not sure why...as of right now, everything is going smoothly. No big hold ups or scary things in the future. Life is very busy, but manageable. But I feel an URGENCY for prayer!


I am a believer. I believe that God gives us feeling, and right now I believe He is "nudging" me very strongly to pray! I'm finding it a little hard to concentrate on anything else right now even...


Soooooo....I'm inviting you to PRAY WITH ME! For what, you ask? Well, I'm not sure exactly...but here are some ideas!


*Pray for my girl!
That she is safe, and her belly is full. And that someone holds her or touches her today. That she is clean. And is out of her crib and exposed to things that help her progress developmentally. And healthy. And that she knows somehow and someway that she has a family across the ocean that loves her and cannot wait to hold her and love her!


*Pray for PAPERWORK!
I know that sounds silly! But the FASTER our paperwork is done - the FASTER we get to go bring our baby home! Right now in the process, we are waiting for our paperwork to get done. It is sitting there, on some desk or file on someone's desk in China. And yes, that is frustrating to me! LOL There is no timeline, or deadline for them to get it done.... It can, or cannot, be done as quickly or as slowly as they want....Please pray that it is done now - today! Our timeline depends on this paperwork. It is not likely that it is done this quickly...but I believe it can be done whenever GOD wants it to be! Please PRAY with me that it is SOON! That the person working on our file has plenty of time to complete ours, and that they feel a sense of urgency also with the upcoming shutdown (to revise the computer system...which is pretty scary since it can cause a MAJOR hold up if ours isn't done before then!) and that our paperwork is process ASAP!


*Pray for our agency!
That things on their end are done as efficiently as possible and that they see our file on the pile and make decisions and actions that speed this process up! We have a great agency...so far everything is perfect. They have done exactly what they have said they would do each step of the way. And I would never want to jump ahead of another adopting family to get my "stuff" done....so just pray that they work efficiently with everyone's paperwork and that files are done quickly!


*Pray for timing!
God has a plan. He knows the future. He sees our girl and knows her needs. Pray that HIS timing is what is motivating all of this! His will. His timing. That is what I want above all. I know I am anxious for us to have her home in our arms, but I pray that every step is happening according to HIS timing. Not mine....




and lastly....


*Pray for our family!
As we get ready to welcome a new little one to our home, we are so excited we can hardly stand it! Pray for peace in our hearts as we wait and patience with the process.


If you are willing to commit to praying for my family, please let me know! Comment here or on my FB page....It will greatly encourage me to know that others are praying for my girl to get home quickly!


Thanks again for supporting our family...We appreciate your support and prayers!
